Clint Eastwood – Born in 1930, Million Dollar Baby

Oscar-winning actor and director is a true Hollywood icon. For nine decades, he has consistently proved everyone who believed he wouldn’t make it in the industry wrong. Bet you don’t know that he was once fired by Universal Studios early in his career because his looks didn’t fit in with their desired aesthetic.

Well, guess who had the last laugh? That’s right, Eastwood! He has received three César Awards, four Academy Awards, and just as many Golden Globes. And though he has over 70 acting credits to his name, Eastwood is also famous for directing hit movies like “Changeling,” “American Sniper,” and the 2021 “Cry Macho.”
