10 Celebrities Who Started as Background Actors - Main Image

The journey to stardom is not an easy one. While some celebrities are fortunate enough to be born into the business, others must work tirelessly to climb the ladder of success.

In fact, many of today's most famous stars began their careers as extras in television shows or movies, often just passing by as vague silhouettes in the background—so unrecognizable that you might be surprised to learn they were ever there.

Every actor has a story to tell, many of which come from humble beginnings that can be truly inspiring.

After all, nobody starts at the top, and becoming a great actor doesn’t happen overnight. With that in mind, here are ten celebrities who started as background actors, and their journeys might just surprise you.

1. Brad Pitt

Many may know Brad Pitt as Hollywood royalty, but his journey to stardom began much more modestly.

10 Great Movies You Didn't Know Brad Pitt Produced
Image
Brad Pitt is best known for his roles in all types of movies, mostly drama ones, but he has also served as a producer in a variety of projects, and he even appeared in some of them. Brad Pitt’s career in the entertainment business began in the late 1980s with roles in the TV shows Another World, Growing Pains, Head of the Class, Freddy’s Nightmares, and Dallas, and that same year, he had minor, uncredited roles in the movies Hunk, No Way Out, No Man’s Land, and Less than Zero. Pitt’s first leading film role arrived in 1988 in the American-Yugoslavian drama The Dark Side of the Sun, though it wasn’t released until 1997, and in 1988, he also made a guest appearance in the TV series 21 Jump Street.

After more supporting roles in film and guest appearances on TV, Pitt gained wider recognition with another supporting role: J.D....

New Resident Evil 2 Dlc Unlocks Every In-Game Reward
Since the incredibly popular Resident Evil 2 remake dropped this past January, we here at We Got This Covered have been letting you know how to unlock various aspects of the game that aren’t necessarily available to you right off the bat. While some things may be a little more obvious such as unlocking Hunk and Tofu, others require a bit more guidance like, say, obtaining weapons with infinite ammo.

Well, what Capcom didn’t tell anyone was that if you waited until April, you could just buy everything for the cost of an average value meal at a fast food restaurant. Believe it or not, the Resident Evil 2 All In-game Rewards Unlock Dlc can now be purchased through the Microsoft Store, PlayStation Store and Steam. For the price of $4.99, you’ll have all of this at your disposal:

How To Unlock Hunk And The 4th Survivor In Resident Evil 2
As you’re probably aware, the newly fangled remake of Resident Evil 2 is chock-full with secrets and unlockable content. But did you know that Capcom’s latest survival horror also hides a cool bonus mode lifted straight out of the original 1998 classic?

Dubbed The 4th Survivor, this new mode places you in the blood-soaked boots of everyone’s favorite Umbrella Security officer, Hunk, and tasks you with escaping the mutated monstrosities that have taken hold of the Raccoon City Police Department. This is arguably one of the most challenging scenarios in the entire game. However, if you’re in the mood to unlock it, you’re already in the right place.

Unlocking Hunk and The 4th Survivor scenario requires players to beat the game with either Leon or Claire, and then beat the game with the opposite character in their respective 2nd Run scenario. In other words, first complete the...

Here’s How To Unlock The True Ending In Resident Evil 2
If you thought that playing through Resident Evil 2 once would mean you’ve seen everything the game has to offer, then you’d be wrong. Much like past entries in the survival horror series, Capcom’s latest title has a few neat tricks hidden up its mutated sleeve. Namely, Resident Evil 2 has a handful of different endings and one of the most elusive is the “true” ending of the game, which is also tied to the Broken Umbrella trophy/achievement. But how exactly do you unlock this?

Well, it’s important to note that you’ll have to play through the game at least twice to reach the true ending. Firstly, you need to beat the main campaign with either Leon Kennedy or Claire Redfield. Essentially, this’ll count as your “A” scenario for that respective character. As a result, the “B” scenario will unlock for the other person you...

Voltron Season 8 Review
The final season is here. Voltron Season 8 on Netflix reminds us of everything we loved about this legendary series.

This Voltron Legendary Defender review contains spoilers.

Voltron Season 8

Voltron season 8 weaves an incredible end to the tapestry of the universe it’s been building up over its entire run. It’s an incredible work of art by the end. Beautiful, enrapturing, and delightfully expansive. The season very much sticks the landing and plays up all the series’ strongest points. It also highlights a few weaknesses but honestly with something so solid you almost don’t notice them.

The biggest strength of the season is how nearly everyone comes back to play some part in the final season. Of course the Paladins are still the focus but come on, even Pidge’s mom gets more than a few scenes to shine! Kolivan gets a comedy moment. Slav is actually vital to the big resolution.

Brad Pitt Facts: 35 Things You (Probably) Don't Know About the 'Fury' Star
Since breaking out over 20 years ago in "Thelma & Louise," Brad Pitt has been difficult to miss.

After landing his place in cinematic history as a hunky (and shirtless) criminal, Pitt's career blossomed with starring roles in critical and box office hits alike, such as "A River Runs Through It" (1992), "Seven" (1995), and "12 Monkeys" (1995) -- just to name a few. In the past two decades, Pitt has become one of Hollywood's biggest stars, but his role has expanded beyond just acting. In only the past few years, he's produced two Best Picture nominated films, "Moneyball" (2011) and "12 Years a Slave" (2013). This fall, he's back in front of the camera leading his battle-hardened platoon into Nazi Germany in "Fury."

From his early days in Missouri to his unlikely romances, here are 35 things you probably don't know about Brad Pitt.

1. Brad Pitt was born December 18, 1963 in Shawnee, Oklahoma to Jane Hillhouse and William Pitt.

2. His mother was a school counselor,...

Poll: What’s your favourite Brad Pitt movie?
It’s fitting that Brad Pitt’s first-ever role was in a movie called Hunk. For the better part of the 1990s, Pitt fit the hunky bill, with his long-flowing locks in Legends of the Fall and romancing Geena Davis in Thelma & Louise, his breakout film role.

Pitt has always made creative choices, even in the early days of his fame by mixing mainstream turns in A River Runs Through It with the edgy Kalifornia and dark True Romance. He’s an actor who has continued to make bold choices both in front of the camera as an actor and behind-the-scenes as a producer.

His latest role puts him on screen opposite Michael Fassbender in the star-studded Ridley Scott drama The Counselor. As womanizing and charismatic middleman Westray, the role is just the latest in a long line of Pitt’s nearly thirty-year career.

Morning Meme: "Avengers" Rakes It In, Mark Deklin Strives for "Gay-Fit," and Eli Manning Dons a Dress On "SNL"
Josh Dixon is half-African-American, half-Japanese, a Stanford graduate, adopted, and a likely Olympic gymnast. He also just came out publicly as gay in a great interview at Outsports. He says that being gay in the sport has been met with a shrug by his teammates, and we couldn't be happier to have a new out world-class athlete.

The list of records The Avengers broke this weekend is nearly endless, with $200.3 million in U.S. box office, the fastest film to reach $200 million, biggest domestic opening ever, and the highest Saturday ever. It's now pulled in $641.8 million worldwide, and has to help ease the pain of John Carter at Disney, sadly too late to save out studio head Rich Ross, who was fired last week.

In sad news, George Lindsay, most famous for playing Goober on The Andy Griffith Show, has passed away at the age of 83.
