New York City, New York, USA:
Alfredo James Pacino (geboren 25 april 1940) is een Amerikaanse acteur en filmmaker. In een carrière van meer dan vijf decennia heeft hij vele prijzen en nominaties ontvangen, waaronder een Academy Award, twee Tony Awards en twee Primetime Emmy Awards. Hij is een van de weinige artiesten die de Triple Crown of Acting heeft ontvangen. Hij is ook geëerd met de AFI Life Achievement Award, de Cecil B. DeMille Award en de National Medal of Arts. Een methode-acteur en voormalig student van de HB Studio en de Actors Studio, waar hij les kreeg van Charlie Laughton en Lee Strasberg, Pacino's filmdebuut kwam op 29-jarige leeftijd met een ondergeschikte rol in Me, Natalie (1969). Hij kreeg lovende kritieken voor zijn eerste hoofdrol als heroïneverslaafde in The Panic in Needle Park (1971). Brede bijval en erkenning kwam met zijn doorbraakrol als Michael Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather (1972), waarvoor hij zijn eerste Oscar-nominatie ontving, en hij zou de rol opnieuw opnemen in de sequels The Godfather Part II (1974) en The Godfather Deel III (1990). Zijn vertolking van Michael Corleone wordt beschouwd als een van de grootste in de filmgeschiedenis. Pacino ontving nominaties voor de Academy Award voor Beste Acteur voor Serpico (1973), The Godfather Part II, Dog Day Afternoon (1975) en ...And Justice for All (1979), en won uiteindelijk voor het spelen van een blinde militaire veteraan in Geur van een vrouw (1992). Voor zijn uitvoeringen in The Godfather, Dick Tracy (1990), Glengarry Glen Ross (1992) en The Irishman (2019) verdiende hij Oscar-nominaties voor beste mannelijke bijrol. Andere opmerkelijke portretten zijn Tony Montana in Scarface (1983), Carlito Brigante in Carlito's Way (1993), Benjamin Ruggiero in Donnie Brasco (1997) en Lowell Bergman in The Insider (1999). Hij speelde ook in de thrillers Heat (1995), The Devil's Advocate (1997), Insomnia (2002), en verscheen in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019). Op televisie speelde Pacino in verschillende producties voor HBO, waaronder Angels in America (2003) en de Jack Kevorkian biopic You Don't Know Jack (2010), waar hij een Primetime Emmy Award won voor Outstanding Lead Actor in a Miniseries or a Movie voor elk. Pacino speelt momenteel in de Amazon Video-webtelevisieserie Hunters (2020-heden). Hij heeft ook een uitgebreide carrière op het podium gehad. Hij won twee keer een Tony Award, in 1969 en 1977, voor zijn uitvoeringen in Does a Tiger Wear a Necktie? en De Basisopleiding van Pavlo Hummel. Pacino maakte zijn filmdebuut met Looking for Richard (1996), de regie en hoofdrol in deze documentaire over Richard III; Pacino speelde de hoofdrol op het podium in 1977. Hij trad ook op als Shylock in een speelfilmaanpassing uit 2004 en in 2010 de toneelproductie van The Merchant of Venice. Pacino regisseerde en speelde in Chinese Coffee (2000), Wilde Salomé (2011) en Salomé (2013). Sinds 1994 is hij de gezamenlijke voorzitter van de Actors Studio.
