Samuel L. Jackson was born on December 21, 1948 in Washington, D.C.  After strong appearances in critically acclaimed films like Do the Right Thing, Menace II Society, and Jungle Fever, Jackson’s star in the mainstream rose through his role as Jules Winnfield in 1994’s Pulp Fiction.  He has been a meme-generating, quote-making machine through appearances in films like Jurassic Park, Deep Blue Sea, and Snakes on a Plane.  Jackson is also famous for his recurring roles as Mace Windu in the Star Wars universe and as Nick Fury in the MCU, and received an Honorary Academy Award in 2022.
