Kurt Russell has been in the Hollywood game since a youth! Born in Massachusetts and raised in Los Angeles, the 70-year-old star got his start as a child actor on such TV shows as ‘The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters’, ‘Gunsmoke’, and ‘Gilligan’s Island’. In 1966, he signed a ten-year contract with Walt Disney Productions and became one of its biggest draws. In the 80s, he became a bona fide movie star after his two collaborations with director ‘John Carpenter: The Thing’ and ‘Escape From New York’.
One of his biggest hits was 1987’s ‘Overboard,’ with his partner Goldie Hawn. Later in his career, he would receive accolades for his dramatic turns in ‘Tequila Sunrise’, ‘Backdraft’, and ‘Tombstone’.
Kurt’s show business success isn’t the only thing he can boast about. He’s also a family man. Kurt is the proud papa of son Boston Russell, whom he welcomed during his four-year marriage to Season Hubley, which ended in 1983. He also gushes over Wyatt Russell, his son he shares with Goldie. As the couple have been in a relationship for over 38 years, Kurt is a fantastic stepfather to Goldie’s other two children, Oliver Hudson, and Kate Hudson.
Oliver Hudson, Kurt Russell, Goldie Hawn, Kate Hudson, Wyatt Russell, Ryder Robinson, Wilder Hudson, Bodhi Hudson, Rio Hudson, and Bingham Bellamy all gather at the ‘Goldie’s Love in for Kids’ event in Los Angeles in 2016.
