These days, Jason Alexander is best known for playing the character George Costanza on the iconic sitcom Seinfeld. However, when he played the character Phillip Stuckey in Pretty Woman, the actor was relatively unknown on the screen. Prior to this, Alexander enjoyed success on the Broadway stage and he even won a Tony back in 1989, the year he filmed Pretty Woman. The film was released in March of 1990, just as season one of Seinfeld was quickly turning into a TV sensation.
