The Story of John Travolta

Marlon Brando Fan

One of Travolta’s role models is none other than legendary actor Marlon Brando! Brando had words of wisdom for the younger actor that he told the public in an interview. Brando had told Travolta not to expect things from others that you realize they cannot provide you.

Actually, Travolta explained how valuable this advice has been to him even currently. Brando also said that Travolta’s impersonation of him during SNL made him laugh harder than he ever has in his life! Quite the compliment from such an icon!

Six Time’s The Charm

Who could ever turn down a film with Halle Berry and Hugh Jackman? Apparently, John Travolta almost did…six times.

Finally, after being offered the role of Gabriel Shear, a counter-terrorist unit commander, for Swordfish (2011), Travolta accepted. Actually, he accepted because he heard Dominic Sena was directing. Maybe he was that big a fan!
