The American actor William Robert 'Billy Bob' Thornton, as his full name reads, was born on August 4, 1955, in Hot Springs (Arkansas, USA). However, Billy Bob Thornton is known not only as an actor but also as a theater and screenwriter, director, and singer.
Billy Bob Thornton achieved his international breakthrough with the film 'Sling Blade' in 1996. He not only played the role of Karl Childers but also wrote the screenplay and directed. In 1997, he received an Oscar for Best Screenplay and was nominated for an Oscar as Best Actor.
Billy Bob Thornton also launched a career as a singer. A total of four albums were released: Private Radio (2001), The Edge of the World (2003), Hobo (2005), and Beautiful Door (2007).
Billy Bob Thornton was nominated for a Golden Globe a total of six times. In 2015, he received the award as Best Actor for his role in 'Fargo', and in 2017 for his role in the American television series 'Goliath'.
The thriller "Seven", the Oscar-winning film "American Beauty" and the hit series "House of Cards" all have one thing in common: actor Kevin Spacey and thus his German dubbing voice Till Hagen. Till owes it to his distinctive, authoritative and clear voice that he was already working in many recording studios at the very beginning of his career as a voice actor. After his first ensemble recordings, smaller roles soon followed, and finally the German dubbing of the film "Seven" (1995) laid the foundation for a long and successful career. Kevin Spacey is of course not the only actor to whom Till Hagen regularly lends his voice. For example, he is the German voice of Clark Gregg (including "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."), David Costabile ("The Post") and Stewart Arnott ("The Shape of Water"). We can probably all remember one very special audio drama role: Till Hagen voices the zookeeper Karl in the "Benjamin Blümchen" audio plays. Many will also know his voice from numerous commercials.
