Billy Bob Thornton Was Told He's "Too Ugly To Be A Leading Man, Too Pretty To Be A Character Acto…

[@mismissy]

He was so good in Fargo and Slingblade. Also love Bad Santa😂

[@guerreroseventyfour1819]

His role as Malvo in Fargo was 🔥

[@dunkelmonkey]

Have you ever seen "Bandits"?

[@luciustitius]

Goliath, not to forget.

[@VandyMas]

Indeed! Billy Bob is an exceptional actor, producer & writer ❤.

[@gregorym3020]

Bring on that deluded Streisand. I hear England might even reject her visa . Has she left yet. The great dictator won Go Streisand Go .

[@dunkelmonkey]

If anybody hasn't seen the movie "Bandits" - you've got to see it! It's my favorite Billy Bob Thornton movie, and that's saying something because he's been in so many great ones

[@roberthevern6169]

For me, I loved his prime series, Goliath!

[@ShitStefanShoots]

Goliath was excellent!

[@VXRGO85]

always thought (and still do) Billy Bob was a rockstar of a dude 🫡

[@JohnBarron-n]

WTF is he wearing?

[@boise2Talay7886]

Goliath is another Billy Bob gem, all 3 seasons

[@liquidsn]

Goliath season 1 was amazing! best Lawyer show.

[@Sulu-d4r]

That's some get up to hide his baldness. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ocmcpherson7761]

I grew up about 30 minutes from where he grew up in Arkansas and we got the same drawl and people have always called my billy bob

[@anchababymalkin3222]

Malvern.....Little Rock dude here....

[@lashendawest7509]

We love billy bob thornton and stephen colbert

[@chezmoi42]

I've never seen him before (retired in France since '92), but he may be my favorite guest on this show, ever. Great personality.

[@Fern635]

Definitely check him out in Slingblade. It's a pretty bleak movie, but he's brilliant in it.

[@JJ-ze6vb]

He is in his “Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean“ phase.

[@christopherpaul7588]

He was so good in the Man Who Wasn't There.

[@paxamericanafilms]

That’s some bad hat, Harry

[@Picklesnot-co3k]

Yea! Good call!

[@ckcnj9175]

I started to look at the comments only to find out wtf was on his head! Is it a cowboy hat with a stocking cap cover?

[@DanielFox-v3u]

Totally

[@MrBuc128]

Jaws reference nice

[@gwenniegirl50]

⁠@@ckcnj9175to me it looks like a toboggan type cap with a fedora style hat on top of that. Billy Bob Thornton always did have his own sense of fashion.

[@natalieclark5819]

That follow-up Q&A to the Billy Wilder story was awesome!

[@LlamaKingGaming]

I'll always remember Billy Bob for Homegrown

[@angelmatos9143]

Relax Billy Bob. Genius is always beautiful 🎉

[@NewMessage]

Good ol' 'Two-Hats' Thornton!

[@Caperhere]

John Prine: and Billy Bob Thornton said “grunt”.😊 I think he must be an interesting cat.

[@pamelasawyer2627]

"Monster's Ball" was also a great movie.

[@scottzappa9314]

Great actor and so talented on many levels.

[@ojojcmusic2454]

Underrated

[@indiaalphanovember8217]

Cool. Jamiroquai.

[@zingleraster9124]

Comment of the day

[@daviddelgado6090]

Mr Thornton is such a real person

[@SquirrelNebula]

It's probably just me, but he keeps getting better looking. Damn. 💚

[@jdp5606]

Bad Santa is such a great movie. Underrated for sure.

[@Luke-PlanesTrainsDogsnCars]

''Hey ROCKY ...watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat'' _but that trick never works_ ''This time 4 sure''

[@CarolynStewart-v5q]

Does anyone remember that Billy Bob played the urologist who was after Penny on Big Bang Theory? He was hilarious! I also think he resembles actor Peter Gallagher. JMO

[@christelletaljard4266]

Yes that was a great guest appearance!

[@Fern635]

He does look a bit like Peter Gallagher! It's the dimples, I think.

[@mixodorians12]

Is he wearing a earing through a wooly hat, and has a hat on top of it? Also dog tags?

[@protiliusproductions]

Talk about a legend… Dude is the most likeable recovering hillbilly I’ve ever seen on screen or real life. Married Angelina Jolie. Starred in some of the best blockbusters. And he’s really likeable to boot. Legend.

[@ftux1915]

The weather is gray and dark, the temperatures are dropping and it might even snow, the best conditions for watching Fargo

[@Fern635]

Agreed!

[@GODLETMEWINAMEN]

What's the deal with the Turban ,is he going for the Aladdin or Genie look 🤔🤣⁉️

[@michaelclohosey7645]

He was excellent in Goliath

[@pamr4040]

The first thing I remember seeing him in was "Hearts Afire" with John Ritter and Markie Post back in the early 90s...great show and cast! ❤

[@yvonnerolley9676]

Very modest

[@zingleraster9124]

What brand is that western shirt?

[@decencywarrior9598]

Another great one from Arkansas.

[@Phenom0100]

Why does Billy look like an undercover Magician?

[@craig1479]

Don't forget Tombstone: " Something on your mind?". Right before Kurt Russell grabs him by the ear and ejects him from the saloon. I think his character's name is Johnny Tyler.

[@Bringmethehorizondude]

What a fit. Dude’s a legend

[@stonewal316]

A simple plan 👌

[@I.D.A-sw]

He was good in Goliat too ❤

[@DryHeart23]

I really like his Halloween costume!

[@luciustitius]

When you're almost 70, every day is Halloween.

[@sickk0073]

Its a johnny depp costume!

[@yurielcundangan9090]

Thornton never cease to AMAZEE😂

[@fuhyou3223]

Does anybody have a magic carpet for Billy Bob? He looks likes he’s auditioning for Aladdin 3.

[@blabla48076]

Billy Bob is one of those actors that often portrays unlikeable characters or villains, but actually seems real nice in person!

[@lga9046]

Hey its the dude on the cigarette paper box

[@NipItInTheBud100]

They were right!

[@Turbojonny5]

Wth he is wearing on his head?? A beanie with a top hat of sorts?

[@eclectickimmer]

He's bald, but vain?

[@whoaskedforthisbs]

Celebs wear what they want. In case you hadn't noticed.

[@scifiknut]

I thought he was a sikh. A "sikh" beanie 😉.

[@David-cm4ok]

Why not? He wears it well.

[@Turbojonny5]

@@whoaskedforthisbs 3 replies and NO ONE has come up with a straight answer of my question. 🙄What is he WEARING??🤦🏻‍♂️

[@billsadler3]

Darrell in "U-Turn" made the movie for me a "Groundhog Day" for Penn's character from the deepest and funniest caverns in Hades, minus Persephone.

[@Gaccount-cr7zn]

Gotta go check Landman

[@kotkaconforza]

Billy Wilder gave some sensible advice, though bit harsh 😁

[@EdKazO-Vision]

He’s wearing that outfit just to troll TSA workers.

[@tonyjohnson1405]

Gentle Giant reference ❤

[@jayfolk]

I like the hat. Also Billy bob doesn’t give a shit like his characters. So like the hat size *it fits*

[@nunyanunya4147]

hey billy! which midlife crisis you want to show today? WHY NOT ALL OV EM!

[@poltotinco4eva]

the coolest cat in town, ain't he?

[@kickazz999]

Depp must be on holiday😮

[@mistyfreeze2973]

Billy Bob Thornton is truly one of my favorite actors and is supremely talented, but what the fuck is on his head? LOL

[@walterstephens5737]

Only Billy Bob can dress like Jagger and get away with it

[@Tao_Tology]

Does he, though?

[@Sulu-d4r]

@@Tao_Tology no

[@waltonstreet5740]

Billy Bob liked Norm Macdonald. That's good enough for me.

[@blessingsoutlaw]

He jingles. And jangles.

[@MiNiMeMiniatureDrumCovers]

Love BBT but is he looking like the genie from mike tysons punch out in his honor because of tomorrows fight!😂😂😂😂 lets go mike!

[@WendyCarrey]

Billy. Honey, how is your daughter? You are one of the Best. Always perfect. Blessed by God. Wendy Carrey

[@ryanm4319]

For those that don’t know, this is bohemian pirate garrrrrrrrb. OK?

[@meflove]

WtF does he have on his head??? It's wild how some actors have no problem being bald in a role but can't STAND to be bald IRL.

[@Picklesnot-co3k]

Help me out again: Billy Bob came out to what music/song? I'm here wracking my brain. 🧠 🧠 🧠

[@emsulich]

The Beatles

[@modrink840]

They're playing the intro to "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" by The Beatles. :)

[@Picklesnot-co3k]

@emsulich Of course, thank you.

[@Picklesnot-co3k]

@modrink840 Thank you so much. Would I be pushing my luck if I asked what classical music the current Saks commercials are using? I've tried to look it up.

[@modrink840]

@@Picklesnot-co3k No problem at all! It's always fun being able to help out. If you're referring to the short ad featuring the woman chipping away at a big block of ice, the music they are using is the "Winter" concerto in Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons", which consists of four concertos, each one representing a different season of the year. In this video, the section featured in the ad starts at about 1:13: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5KylJh5hcxoeaM. Cheers!

[@HarryNicNicholas]

i've been mistaken for BBT more than once.

[@Latrodectus_vv_]

Someone should have told him that hat looks bad.

[@BenWinder108]

What is he wearing good grief. At least he was great in bad Santa.

[@tripsclone]

wow Johnny Depp is getting old

[@TheBetterName]

Elephant in the room. What's that hat style called?

I thought he was wearing a turban from the thumbnail
