What Happened to Christopher Walken?

Christopher Walken is the greatest of the greats. A legendary character actor who became an icon, chances are, if you're reading this, you've tried to do a Christopher Walken impersonation. It's too hard not to, as no one really sounds, or acts quite like Walken, do they? But before he became iconic for how over-the-top/wacky he is, he was a down-to-earth actor who collected a much-deserved Oscar for his role in Michael Cimino's The Deer Hunter. Often, Walken's skill gets overlooked in favor of self parody, but here we dig into the whole scope of his career. This episode of What Happened to this Celebrity, which is written (with Mathew Plale), narrated and produced by Taylor James Johnson, and edited by Kier Gomes, we dig into this one of a kind talent.

You missed a GIANT part of Walken's professional story. He began acting when he was a kid, along with his two brothers, starring in commercials, live TV, and anything else they could cast him in. His mother managed his career but wasn't pushy, and Walken has said he really enjoyed it. He is one of the few child actors who survived to become successful as an adult. His mother was Scottish, so did not need to learn English, but his father was German. It was people in the neighborhood (multicultural) that caused him to develop his speech style. He started dancing as a small boy and danced on Broadway long before he did movies, starring in the road version of the original West Side Story. He met his wife, another dancer, while touring, and they are still together. These are things anyone knows who has taken the slightest interest in him. Next time, at least read Wikipedia, guys. P. S. He does not care how well or poorly his movies do. He's there to do the job, which he loves. Best attitude I've ever heard.

My favourite casting story about Christopher Walken is that he almost became Jesus Christ in Martin Scorsesse's adaptation of The Last Temptation Of Christ until they decided to go with Willem Dafoe instead. The idea of Walken doing the Sermon On The Mount feels like one of the great missed opportunities in cinema history.

I think he'll just go 'til he drops. He loves to work, and the world needs his level of skill and dedication.

Can't wait to see him as Padisha Emperor of the known universe in Dune part two. I've always loved Christopher Walken

One of my favorite Walken flicks is Poolhall Junkies! Him and Chaz Palmentaeri play off each other well!

I really loved the movie The Milagro Beanfield War. He plays the hired gun in the movie. It is not a big part but that is a terrific movie.
