Kurt Vogel Russell, who is best known for his performances as an action hero in the ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s, turned 71 years old today, March 17. Born in Springfield, Massachusetts, he began his career at the age of twelve in ‘The Travels Of Jaimie McPheeters’ (1963-1964) TV series. But after signing for a ten-years contract with Walt Disney, Russell got his first break and became one of the top stars in the ‘70s.

Kurt Russell has given several notable projects like ‘The Best Of Times’ (1986), ‘Tango & Cash’ (1989), ‘Stargate’ (1994), ‘Vanilla Sky’ (2001), ‘The Fast And Furious’ franchises (2015-2021), ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.2’ (2017), ‘Once Upon A Time In Hollywood’ (2019) among others.

Russell has won numerous prestigious accolades including Primetime Emmy Award, Golden Globe Award, Disney Legends Award, Hollywood Film Award and many more.

Last year, on his 70th birthday, Russell’s partner, Goldie Hawn wished him in a very special way. She posted a funny old video clip from an award show with Kurt, where she is explaining that how much they are close to each other as companions, as co-stars and also as a couple and in a funny way, Russell replied to her that one thing they are not and that’s being married.

She wrote a heart-warming note in the caption wishing him, “Happy birthday baby! What a wild ride. No, we never got married but one thing that continues to grow is our love. You’re a wild one, brilliant, loveable, childlike, perfectly maddening, a father supreme and funny! I can’t imagine my life without you at any age, Kurt Russell. You’re the catch. And you’re all mine.” The video garnered more than six lakh likes on Instagram. As Russell is not a social media person, fans had flooded wishing him in the comments with much love in Goldie’s post.
