2 2 CAREER

2.2 1970–89

In 1971, he co-starred as a young robber released fromjail, alongside James Stewart in Fools’ Parade. Later, heguest-starred in an episode of Room 222 as an idealistichigh school student who assumed the costumed identityof Paul Revere to warn of the dangers of pollution. In1966, Russell had been signed to a ten-year contract withThe Walt Disney Company, where he became, accordingto Robert Osborne, the “studio’s top star of the '70s”.[2]He then went on to star in The One and Only, Genuine,Original Family Band and The Computer Wore TennisShoes, the latter of which spawned two sequels: Now YouSee Him, Now You Don't in 1972 and The Strongest Manin the World in 1975.Russell, like his father, had a baseball career. In theearly 1970s, Russell was a switch-hitting second base-man for the California Angels minor league affiliates,the Bend Rainbows (1971)[8][9][10][11] and Walla WallaIslanders (1972) in the short season Class A NorthwestLeague,[12][13] then moved up to Class AA in 1973 withthe El Paso Sun Kings of the Texas League.[14][15] Whilein the field turning the pivot of a double play early in theseason, the incoming runner at second base collided withhim and tore the rotator cuff in Russell’s right (throwing)shoulder. Before his injury, he was leading the TexasLeague in hitting, with a .563 batting average. He didnot return to El Paso, but was a designated hitter for theindependent Portland Mavericks back in the NorthwestLeague late in their short season. The team was owned byhis father, and he had been doing promotional work forthem in the interim.[16] The injury forced his retirementfrom baseball in 1973 and led to his return to acting.[17]

In the autumn of 1974, he appeared in the ABC seriesThe New Land, inspired by the 1972 Swedish film ofthe same name. Critically acclaimed, it suffered verylow ratings and only aired six of the 13 episodes; it wasup against established Saturday night favorites All in theFamily on CBS and Emergency! on NBC. In autumn1976, Russell appeared with Tim Matheson in the 15-episode NBC series The Quest, the story of two youngmen in the American West seeking the whereabouts oftheir sister, a captive of the Cheyenne. In 1979, Russellwas nominated for an EmmyAward for Outstanding LeadActor in a Limited Series or a Special for the made-for-television film Elvis. This was his first pairing with direc-tor John Carpenter. Russell did not perform the singingvocals in the film, they were provided by country musicartist Ronnie McDowell.During the 1980s, Russell teamed with Carpenter severaltimes, helping create some of his best-known roles, usu-ally as anti-heroes, including the infamous Snake Plisskenof Escape fromNewYork and its sequel, Escape from L.A.Among their collaborations was The Thing (1982), basedupon the short storyWhoGoes There? by JohnW. Camp-bell, Jr., which had been interpreted on film before, al-beit loosely, in 1951’s The Thing from Another World. In

1986, the two made Big Trouble in Little China, a darkkung-fu comedy/action film in which Russell played atruck driver caught in an ancient Chinese war. The filmwas a financial failure like The Thing, it has since gaineda cult audience. After voicing adult Copper in the ani-mated Disney film The Fox and the Hound, Russell is oneof the very few famous child stars in Hollywood who hasbeen able to continue his acting career past his teen years.He received award nominations well into middle age, in-cluding a Golden Globe Award for Best Performance byan Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture for hisperformance with Meryl Streep in Silkwood (1983).

the praise of critics. “In many ways,” wrote Claudia Puigof USA Today, "Miracle belongs to Kurt Russell.” RogerEbert of the Chicago Sun Times wrote, “Russell does realacting here.” ElvisMitchell ofTheNewYork Timeswrote,“Mr. Russell’s cagey and remote performance givesMir-acle its few breezes of fresh, albeit methane-scented, air.”In 2006, Russell revealed that he was the director ofTombstone, not George P. Cosmatos, as credited.[18]According to Russell, Cosmatos was recommended bySylvester Stallone and was, in effect, a ghost director,much as he had been for Rambo: First Blood Part II.Russell said he promised Cosmatos he would keep it asecret as long as Cosmatos was alive; Cosmatos died inApril 2005.[18] Russell owns the rights to the masters andmakes reference to possibly re-editing the film, as he wasnot originally involved in the editing.[18]

Russell played the villain Stuntman Mike in QuentinTarantino's segment Death Proof of the film Grindhouse.After a remake of Escape from New York was announced,Russell was reportedly upset with the casting of Scottishactor Gerard Butler for his signature character, SnakePlissken, as he believed the character 'was quintessen-tially [...] American.'[19][20]
