Burton Leon "Burt" Reynolds (born February 11, 1936) is an American actor, director and producer. He starred in many television series and feature films, such as Deliverance (1972), The Longest Yard (1974) as well as its 2005 remake, Smokey and the Bandit (1977) and The Cannonball Run (1981). He also won two Golden Globe Awards, one for Best Actor in a Television Series Musical or Comedy for Evening Shade and one for Best Supporting Actor – Motion Picture for Boogie Nights.
Early life
Reynolds is the son of Fern H. (née Miller; 1902–92) and Burton Milo Reynolds (1906–2002). He has English, Scottish, Scots-Irish and Dutch ancestry, and is also said to have Cherokee roots.[1][2][3][4] Reynolds was born in Lansing, Michigan,[5] on February 11, 1936,[6] and in his autobiography stated that is where his family lived when his father was drafted into the United States Army.[7] Reynolds, his mother and sister joined his father at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, and lived there for two years. When Reynolds' father was sent to Europe, the family moved to Lake City, Michigan, where his mother had been raised.[8] In 1946, the family moved to Riviera Beach, Florida. His father became Chief of Police of Riviera Beach, which is adjacent to the north of West Palm Beach, Florida.
During 10th grade at Palm Beach High School, Reynolds was named First Team All State and All Southern as a fullback, and received multiple scholarship offers.[9] After graduating from Palm Beach High in West Palm Beach, he attended Florida State University on a football scholarship and played halfback.[10] While at Florida State, Reynolds became roommates with now notable college football broadcaster and analyst Lee Corso. Reynolds hoped to be named to All-American teams and to have a career in professional football, but he was injured in the first game of his sophomore season, and a car accident later that year worsened the injury.[11] With his university football career over, Reynolds considered becoming a police officer, but his father suggested that he finish university and become a parole officer. To keep up with his studies, he began taking classes at Palm Beach Junior College (PBJC) in neighboring Lake Worth. In his first term at PBJC, Reynolds was in an English class taught by Watson B. Duncan III. Duncan pushed Reynolds into trying out for a play he was producing, Outward Bound. He cast Reynolds in the lead role based on having heard Reynolds read Shakespeare in class. Reynolds won the 1956 Florida State Drama Award for his performance in Outward Bound, and called Duncan his mentor and the most influential person in his life.[12] While at Florida, he became a brother of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity.[13]
Career
Stage
The Florida State Drama Award included a scholarship to the Hyde Park Playhouse, a summer stock theater, in Hyde Park, New York. Reynolds saw the opportunity as an agreeable alternative to more physically-demanding summer jobs, but did not yet see acting as a possible career. While working there, Reynolds met Joanne Woodward, who helped him find an agent and was cast in Tea and Sympathy at the Neighborhood Playhouse in New York City. After his Broadway debut Look, We've Come Through, he received favorable reviews for his performance and went on tour with the cast, driving the bus and appearing on stage.[14] After the tour, Reynolds returned to New York and enrolled in acting classes. His classmates included Frank Gifford, Carol Lawrence, Red Buttons, and Jan Murray. After a botched improvisation in acting class, Reynolds briefly considered returning to Florida, but he soon got a part in a revival of Mister Roberts, in which Charlton Heston played the starring role. After the play closed, the director, John Forsythe, arranged a film audition with Joshua Logan for Reynolds. The film was Sayonara. Reynolds was told that he could not be in the film because he looked too much like Marlon Brando. Logan advised Reynolds to go to Hollywood, but Reynolds did not feel confident enough to do so.[15] He worked in a variety of different jobs, such as waiting tables, washing dishes, driving a delivery truck and as a bouncer at the Roseland Ballroom. While working as a dockworker, Reynolds was offered $150 to jump through a glass window on a live television show.[16]
Television and film
Reynolds guest-starred in the Pony Express episode, "The Good Samaritan", which aired in 1960 on the centennial of the famed mail route.[17] Reynolds used television fame to secure leading roles for low-budget films, like Operation C.I.A. (1965). He played the titular role in Navajo Joe, the low-budget starring roles established him as the main film actor and earned for the loan. He disparaged with the series, telling Johnny Carson that Dan August had "two forms of expression: "mean and meaner". Reynolds appeared on ABC's The American Sportsman hosted by outdoors journalist Grits Gresham, who took celebrities on hunting, fishing and shooting trips around the world. Reynolds considered producer Saul David to play the lead role in Our Man Flint, but was rejected by Lew Wasserman.[18] Albert R. Broccoli asked Reynolds to play James Bond, but he turned the role down, saying "An American can't play James Bond. It just can't be done."[19] The role went to George Lazenby. While filming Shark!, Sam Fuller disowned the rough cuts.[20] Reynolds later starred in Skullduggery (1970).
His breakout performance in Deliverance (1972) made him a star and he gained notoriety, when he posed naked in the April (Vol. 172, No. 4) issue of Cosmopolitan.[21] Reynolds claims the centerfold in Cosmopolitan hurt the chances for the film and the cast from receiving Academy Awards.[22] In 1977, Reynolds and Nick Nolte declined the role of Han Solo in the Star Wars franchise, which went to Harrison Ford.[23] Later that year, he worked as a guest color analyst on CBS Sports' telecast of the Sun Bowl, teaming with Pat Summerall and Tom Brookshier. Reynolds starred with Jerry Reed, Jackie Gleason and Sally Field in Smokey and the Bandit, and later claimed the turning point for Stroker Ace (1983). Reynolds tried his hand at producing two shows with friend Bert Convy, including Win, Lose or Draw. As a celebrity gameplayer, he appeared with Justine Bateman, Debbie Reynolds and Loretta Swit. Another show they produced was titled 3rd Degree, and like Win, Lose, or Draw, Reynolds appeared on a few episodes as a panelist from 1989 to 1990. He also played Wood Newton in the CBS sitcom, Evening Shade, and won a Golden Globe Award and an Emmy Award.[24] For Boogie Nights (1997), Reynolds won another Golden Globe and was nominated for his first Academy Award. He starred in two film remakes, The Dukes of Hazzard that is based on the television series and The Longest Yard based on the classic film. In USA Network's Burn Notice, he played ex-CIA agent Paul Anderson, who is pursued by a team of Russian assassins who wanted to kidnap, interrogate and kill him.
Other roles
In 1973, Reynolds released the album Ask Me What I Am and sang along with Dolly Parton in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.[25] On March 15, 1978, Reynolds earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and in the same year built a dinner theatre in Jupiter, Florida. His celebrity was such that he drew not only big-name stars to appear in productions, but also to sell-out audiences. He sold the venue in the early 1990s, but a museum highlighting his career still operates nearby.[26] From 1977 to 1981, Reynolds topped the Quigley Publications poll of movie exhibitors, who voted him the top box-office attraction in the country. Only Bing Crosby won the poll more consecutive years. Despite much success, Reynolds' finances expired, and he filed for bankruptcy, due in part to an extravagant lifestyle, a divorce from Loni Anderson and failed investments in some Florida restaurant chains in 1996.[27][28] The filing was under Chapter 11, from which Reynolds emerged two years later.[28] Reynolds co-authored the children's book Barkley Unleashed A Pirate, a "whimsical tale [that] illustrates the importance of perseverance, the wonders of friendship and the power of imagination".[29] In early 2000, he created and toured for Burt Reynolds' One-Man Show. On video games, he voiced Avery Carrington in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City[30] and himself in Saints Row: The Third as the mayor of Steelport. He starred in the audiobook version of The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook. In May 2006, Reynolds appeared in Miller Lite beer commercials.
Personal life
Relationships
Reynolds was good friends with Dom DeLuise, Charles Nelson Reilly, Inger Stevens, Tammy Wynette, Lucie Arnaz, Adrienne Barbeau, Susan Clark, Lorna Luft, Tawny Little, Dinah Shore and Chris Evert.[31]
Reynolds married Judy Carne from 1963 to 1965, and Loni Anderson from 1988 to 1993, with whom he adopted a son, Quinton.[32] In the late 1970s, he had a relationship with Sally Field.[33]
Atlanta nightclub
In the late 1970s, Reynolds opened Burt's Place, a restaurant/nightclub in the Omni International Hotel in the Hotel District of downtown Atlanta, Georgia.[34]
Sports team owner
In 1982, Reynolds became a co-owner of the Tampa Bay Bandits, a professional American football team in the USFL, whose nickname was inspired by the Smokey and the Bandit trilogy and Skoal Bandit, a primary sponsor for the team as a result of also sponsoring Reynolds' race team. Reynolds also co-owned a NASCAR Winston Cup team, Mach 1 Racing, with Hal Needham, which ran the #33 Skoal Bandit car with driver Harry Gant.
Health
While filming City Heat, Reynolds was struck in the face with a metal chair, which broke his jaw and left him with temporomandibular joint dysfunction. He lost thirty pounds as a result of having to restrict his eating, and the painkillers prescribed led to an addiction which took several years for him to break. Reynolds underwent back surgery in May 2009 and a quintuple heart bypass in February 2010.
On August 16, 2011, Merrill Lynch Credit Corporation filed foreclosure papers, claiming Reynolds owed $1.2 million on his home in Hobe Sound, Florida.[35] Reynolds owned the Burt Reynolds Ranch, where scenes for Smokey and the Bandit were filmed and which once had a petting zoo, until its sale during bankruptcy.[36] In April 2014, the 153-acre rural property was rezoned for residential use and the Palm Beach County school system could sell it to residential developer K. Hovnanian Homes.[37]
