Personal Quote:
[on why he was happy that he shared co-starring duties on his series The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (1964)] I had a lot of good friends, particularly David Janssen, who never had any life at all, they were just doing television series and doing publicity about television series and that was it. He was the sole star of the shows that he did. See more »Trivia:
He was offered the role of EK Hornbeck in Inherit the Wind (1960), but he turned it down in order to go to Mexico to film The Magnificent Seven (1960). The role went to Gene Kelly. See more »Trademark:
Distinctive smooth but often menacing voice.Star Sign:
