Woody Harrelson photo After working as an understudy in a New York production of Biloxi Blues, Woody Harrelson landed the role of a lifetime as the dufus bartender Woody in the monster-hit sitcom Cheers. The role earned him a number of Emmy Awards and ensured that even when the show ended, everyone would know his name. He proved to be more than just a dimb-witted hunk in feature films like Oliver Stone's uber-violent Natural Born Killers, the comedy White Men Can't Jump and the docu-drama The People vs. Larry Flynt, which garnered him an Oscar nomination.

Harrelson's big break as a movie star came with Ron Shelton's 1992 sleeper White Men Can't Jump, a buddy picture in which he played a charming (if profane) L.A. hustler. His next film was a more serious drama, Indecent Proposal (1993), wherein he was miscast as a husband whose wife sleeps with a millionaire in exchange for a fortune. In 1994, Harrelson appeared as an irresponsible rodeo rider in the moronic buddy comedy The Cowboy Way, which proved to be an all-out clinker. That film's failings... were more than overshadowed by his other film that year, Oliver Stone's inflammatory Natural Born Killers. Playing one of the film's titular psychopaths, Harrelson earned both raves and a sizable helping of controversy for his complex performance.
