Irving Rhames

Ving Rhames is an American Golden Globe-winning actor, one of the few Mission Impossible franchise members to star in all of the 2018 films. The artist also tries himself as a screenwriter and producer, collaborates with production as a voice actor for animated films and computer games.

Due to the external similarity, viewers often confuse Ving Rhames with Michael Clarke Duncan, remembered for the film "The Green Mile".

The artist's full name is Irving Ramses Rames. He was born in New York on May 12, 1979. The boy's father worked as a car mechanic, and his mother was a housewife. They gave their son an unusual name in honor of the journalist of the NBS television channel Irving Levin. Wing spent his childhood in Harlem. This is not the most prosperous area of ​​Manhattan, where you can get into bad company just by leaving your home.

From childhood, Rhames was fascinated by creativity. Having become a student of the New York School of Theater Arts, the young man realized that his soul lay in acting. After receiving a certificate, he entered the SUNY Purchase university and began to delve deeper into the specifics of dramatic art. During this period, Rhames acquired the sonorous nickname Wing, which was coined by fellow student Stanley Tucci.

The young man continued his studies at the Julliard School's Drama Division. In 1983 he received a diploma with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and decided to try his hand at the professional field. The aspiring artist made his debut in 1984 on Broadway in The Winter Boys.

The first experience of the artist on stage was melodrama. In the 1980s, he starred in many television projects. His debut role in cinema for him was the image of James Baldwin in the autobiographical film about the writer "Go Tell the Mountains." In 1986, Wing co-starred with Oprah Winfrey and Matt Dillon, filming Native Son.

In 1988, Patty Hirst was released with the participation of the artist, and 1989 brought the opportunity to collaborate with Brian De Palma, director of the film War Losses, in which Rhames starred opposite Michael Jay Fox and Sean Penn.

Trying on the roles of Vietnamese veterans in the films "Flight of the Intruder" and "Jacob's Ladder", Rhames won the public's favor. He has shown great skill in dramas, comedies and melodramatic films.

1994 brought Wing to the attention of a large audience. The reason was the role of Marcellus Wallace in the comedy thriller by Quentin Tarantino "Pulp Fiction". 1996 turned out to be incredibly important for the artist, because it was at this moment that the premiere of the first part of the Mission Impossible franchise took place. Wing worked on the same set with Tom Cruise, playing the role of Luther Stickell. So he became in demand among producers and gained recognition among the public.

Предложения от кинорежиссеров не заставили себя ждать, а фильмография актера постоянно пополнялась новыми работами. Ленты «Стриптиз», «Опасная земля» и «Воздушная тюрьма» подтвердили талант Рэймса. В 1998-м он стал обладателем престижной премии «Золотой глобус» за работу над фильмом «Дон Кинг: Только в Америке». Актер воплотил в кадре известного американского боксера. Свою награду Винг прямо на сцене передал коллеге Джеку Леммону, совершив благородный жест.

Кроме работ в кинематографе, Винг Рэймс был задействован на телевидении и становился участником радиопрограмм. Чаще всего он выступал в дуэте с Ванессой Уильямс, будучи ведущим эфира на радиостанции Radio Shack. Творческая биография Винга Рэймса постоянно обретает новые возможности. 2000-е принесли ему роль Эдди Бернса в фильме «Месть» и возможность поработать над образом Кеннета в ленте «Рассвет мертвецов». Эпизодические роли в картинах «Офицер полиции», «Ныряльщик», «Чак и Ларри: Пожарная свадьба» также не оставались незамеченными.

Убедительность артиста в любых ролях отмечали критики и зрители. В его творческом багаже самым востребованным являлось амплуа полицейских и злоумышленников. Один из лучших образов в этом направлении актер создал в 2008-м, снимаясь в картине «Спасая Бога». В кадре Рэймс изобразил осужденного, который оказался после заключения на свободе и стал пастором в провинциальной церкви.

В том же году на экраны вышла лента «День Мертвецов». Публика отметила высокую степень актерского мастерства мужчины в этом проекте. За ним последовали фильмы «Подарок», «Мост в никуда», «Суррогаты», «Король авеню». На съемочной площадке картины «Пираньи 3D» Винг Рэймс сотрудничал с Элизабет Шу и Кристофером Ллойдом. Одной из лучших работ актера стала роль в картине «Пожизненно».
