Morgan Freeman was born on June 1, 1937 in Memphis, Tennessee. He was married twice and has four children: Alfonso, Deena, Morgana and Saifoulaye. At the age of 18, he graduated from Broad Street High School in Chicago and turned down a partial scholarship to study at Jackson State University in Jackson, Mississippi as he preferred to work as a mechanic for the United States Army Air Forces. However, acting came into his life several years later, when he made his first feature film debut in 1971 in Who says I can't ride a rainbow! Since then, his acting career has never slowed down. He has won multiple awards, including the most important in the industry such as the Oscars, Golden Globes, SAG, among others.
Where has he impressed us? In films such as Million Dollar Baby alongside Hillary Swank and Clint Eastwood (who was also the director). That film got seven Academy Award nominations and won four categories: Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director. We have also seen him in London Has Fallen with Gerard Butler and Aaron Eckhart in an unmissable action thriller. And lastly, we can’t forget his incredible performance with Johnny Depp in Transcendence.
Tom Holland was born on June 1, 1996 in London. The young actor, now 26 years old, has managed to earn a place in the film industry and his work in acting has given plenty to talk about. He began his career in theaters in 2008 playing the main character in the musical Billie Elliot and he made his film debut in 2012 in The Impossible alongside Naomi Watts, a role for which he was nominated at the Critics’ Choice Awards for Best Young Performer. He rose in popularity when he became part of the Marvel Universe in the Spider Man movies, but we have also seen him in other genres as when he was part of the cast of The Current War with Benedict Cumberbatch.
Surely these two Gemini actors will continue to bring us great joy!
