Ray Liotta's Main TV Roles
NOTE: Complete List of Works can be found at
IMDB
BIOGRAPHY: Intense is the word for Ray Liotta. He specializes in psychopathic characters who hide behind a cultivated charm. Even in his nice guy roles in Field of Dreams (1989) and Operation Dumbo Drop (1995), you get the impression that something is smoldering inside of him. Liotta maintains a steady stream of work, completing multiple projects per year.
TRIVIA:
- Was 'Tim Burton (I)' (qv)'s first choice to play Harvey Dent in _Batman (1989)_ (qv), but turned it down to do _Goodfellas (1990)_ (qv) instead.
- In contrast to his intense, often evil characters, he is by all accounts a nice, well-adjusted family-man off screen.
- He gained about 20 pounds and wore small lifts to appear even more imposing and bear-like while playing Henry Oak in _Narc (2002)_ (qv).
- Has appeared in a film for 'Jonathan Demme' (qv) (_Something Wild (1986)_ (qv)), and his nephew 'Ted Demme' (qv) (_Blow (2001)_ (qv)). He also appeared in _Hannibal (2001)_ (qv), the sequel to Demme's film _The Silence of the Lambs (1991)_ (qv). So, while he has appeared in a Demme film and a Lecter film, he has never done both at the same time.
- Father of 'Karsen Liotta' (qv).
- Claims that he only did _Operation Dumbo Drop (1995)_ (qv) for the money.
- Director 'Antoine Fuqua' (qv) wanted to cast Liotta in _American Gangster (2007)_ (qv) before the film was put on hold and Fuqua was replaced.
- Last name is pronounced Lee-oh-ta.
