Deepwater Horizon (2016)
2016 Peter Berg disaster film with Mark Wahlberg recreating the 2010 BP oil rig explosion. Eleven dead, worst spill in U.S. history.
Actor: Kurt Russell
Kurt Russell was a Disney child actor through the 1960s and then remade himself entirely through five films with John Carpenter, beginning with a television Elvis and continuing through Escape from New York and The Thing.
Snake Plissken is played almost entirely as contempt, and MacReady in The Thing is a functional leader who is never given a heroic moment.
Big Trouble in Little China is the best joke in his filmography: he plays the lead as though he is the hero when the film has quietly made him the sidekick.
He has worked with Tarantino twice, was a minor league baseball player before injury, and never married Goldie Hawn across four decades together.
