Morgan Freeman

Geboren 1 juni 1937 · Memphis, Tennessee, USA

Morgan Freeman (geboren op 1 juni 1937) is een Amerikaanse acteur, regisseur en verteller. Freeman staat bekend om zijn kenmerkende diepe stem en staat bekend om zijn verschillende rollen in een breed scala aan filmgenres. Gedurende zijn carrière van meer dan vijf decennia heeft hij meerdere onderscheidingen ontvangen, waaronder een Academy Award, een Screen Actors Guild Award en een Golden Globe Award. Freeman, geboren in Memphis, Tennessee, groeide op in Mississippi, waar hij begon te acteren in toneelstukken op school. Hij studeerde theaterkunsten in Los Angeles en speelde in het begin van zijn carrière in toneelproducties. Hij werd in de jaren 70 beroemd door zijn rol in de kindertelevisieserie The Electric Company. Freeman verscheen vervolgens in de toneelstukken van Shakespeare Coriolanus en Julius Caesar, waarvan de eerste hem een ​​Obie Award opleverde. Zijn doorbraakrol was in Street Smart (1987), waarin hij een oplichter speelde, wat hem een ​​Academy Award-nominatie opleverde voor beste mannelijke bijrol. Hij verwierf nog meer roem in Glory, het biografische drama Lean on Me en comedy-drama Driving Miss Daisy (allemaal 1989), waarvan de laatste hem zijn eerste Academy Award-nominatie voor Beste Acteur opleverde. In 1992 speelde Freeman samen met Clint Eastwood in de westerse wraakfilm Unforgiven; dit zou de eerste van een aantal samenwerkingen met Eastwood zijn. In 1994 speelde hij in het gevangenisdrama The Shawshank Redemption waarvoor hij nog een Academy Award-nominatie ontving. Freeman speelde ook in David Fincher's misdaadthriller Se7en (1995), en Steven Spielberg's historische drama Amistad (1997). Freeman won de Academy Award voor beste mannelijke bijrol voor zijn rol in het sportdrama Million Dollar Baby van Clint Eastwood uit 2004. In 2009 ontving hij zijn vijfde Oscar-nominatie voor het spelen van de voormalige Zuid-Afrikaanse president Nelson Mandela in Invictus van Eastwood. Freeman staat ook bekend om zijn optreden als Lucius Fox in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Trilogy (2005-2012). Naast acteren heeft Freeman het drama Bopha! (1993). Hij richtte ook het filmproductiebedrijf Revelations Entertainment op met zakenpartner Lori McCreary. Hij is de ontvanger van de Kennedy Center Honor, de AFI Life Achievement Award, de Cecil B. DeMille Award en de Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award. Voor zijn optredens in theaterproducties heeft hij drie Obie Awards gewonnen, een van de meest prestigieuze onderscheidingen voor het erkennen van uitmuntendheid in theater.
