From Child Star to Celebrated Filmmaker: The Incredible and Extraordinary Life of Ron Howard
Oscar Magnet
With 2 Oscar wins (for A Beautiful Mind) and 2 Oscar nominations (for Frost/Nixon), Ron has surely made it big. But going by his record, the best actors and actresses in Hollywood are dying to work with him. That’s not only because most of his movies go on to become huge blockbusters, it also has something to do with the fact that the artists also get Oscar nods for their performance and of course a lot of that has to do with the director of the movie, Ron himself. There have been eight different actors who have starred in Ron’s movies and gotten Oscar nominations; Kathleen Quinlan, Don Ameche, Ed Harris, Dianne Wiest, Russell Crowe, Frank Langella, Jennifer Connelly and Paul Giamatti. Of course, 2 of those actors even won; Ameche for Cocoon and Connelly for A Beautiful Mind.
