Berwyn, Illinois, USA:
Bob Odenkirk (nato il 22 ottobre 1962 a Berwyn, Illinois) è un attore, sceneggiatore, produttore e comico statunitense, considerato uno degli interpreti più apprezzati della televisione contemporanea. Ha iniziato la propria carriera come autore comico, scrivendo per Saturday Night Live tra la fine degli anni Ottanta e i primi anni Novanta, lavoro che gli è valso il suo primo Premio Emmy. Successivamente ha consolidato la propria reputazione nel mondo della comicità grazie a The Ben Stiller Show e alla serie cult Mr. Show with Bob and David, da lui co-creata insieme a David Cross. La consacrazione internazionale è arrivata con il ruolo dell'avvocato Saul Goodman nella serie Breaking Bad. Nato inizialmente come personaggio secondario, Saul è diventato uno dei volti più iconici della televisione moderna, tanto da ottenere una serie spin-off, Better Call Saul. La sua interpretazione di Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman è stata acclamata dalla critica e gli ha fatto ottenere numerose candidature ai Premi Emmy e ai Golden Globe, dimostrando una straordinaria capacità di alternare comicità, dramma e intensità emotiva. Negli ultimi anni Odenkirk ha ampliato ulteriormente la propria carriera cinematografica, sorprendendo pubblico e critica con il ruolo da protagonista nel film d'azione Nobody, in cui interpreta un uomo apparentemente comune che rivela un passato da letale assassino. Ha inoltre recitato in produzioni come Nebraska, The Post, Piccole donne (Little Women) e The Bear, confermando la propria versatilità in generi molto diversi tra loro. Nel 2021 è stato colpito da un infarto durante le riprese di Better Call Saul, ma si è ripreso completamente ed è tornato al lavoro pochi mesi dopo. La sua carriera, iniziata come autore satirico, si è trasformata in una delle più apprezzate di Hollywood, grazie alla capacità di dare vita a personaggi complessi, umani e memorabili.
