Anthony Hopkins (Born in 1937) – The Silence of the Lambs

When Welsh actor Anthony Hopkins started his acting career in 1960, he couldn’t have known he’ll become this big of a star. But fast forward to today, and his accolades include several Academy Awards, Primetime Emmys, and British Academy Television Awards.

He’s remained a constant fixture on our screens and racked up over 140 acting credits in the process. In 2012, he portrayed veteran actor Alfred Hitchcock in the biopic “Hitchcock.” Still, there’s no forgetting his role as “Dr. Hannibal Lecter” in “The Silence of the Lambs.” Hopkins isn’t done with Hollywood just yet. And in 2022, we saw him in “Zero Contact.”
