Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Kevin Anderson can be seen as ne'er do well hit man Lonnie in the upcoming "Justified City Primeval" on Netflix/FX this coming summer. Before that, he starred as Father Frollo in iconic Styx rock star Dennis DeYoung's brilliant musical production of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame". Recently, Kevin has tackled a myriad of challenging and varied roles onstage including Lee in "True West" and Jeeter in "Last of the Boys" at Seattle Rep, and John Adams in the musical "1776". A Steppenwolf ensemble member for 40 years, he created and originated the role of Mr. Breeding in their production of Tracy Letts' scathing political satire "The Minutes" in 2017.

Kevin has enjoyed an enduring, distinguished career which spans the breadth of over four decades. An actor's actor and respected by his peers, Kevin is recognized for starring opposite some of the entertainment industry's most accomplished and established actors including Julia Roberts, Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, Naomi Watts, Angela Basset, Michelle Pfeiffer, Patti LuPone, Jessica Chastain, Albert Finney, Jessica Lange, Vanessa Redgrave, and Richard Gere to name a few. He has also worked with some of the most iconic film and stage directors of our time including Alan J. Pakula, Norman Jewison, Mike Figgis, Phillip Kaufman, Sir Peter Hall, Trevor Nunn, Gary Sinise, Robert Falls, and the indomitable composer Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Anderson made his feature film debut in the Warner Brothers hit "Risky Business" with Tom Cruise yet first big break came with Steppenwolf Theatre's "Orphans" (Joseph Jefferson Award). Kevin gained national critical acclaim for his riveting performance in which he played the show-stopping, frenetic, simian younger brother Phillip who lived on Star Kist tuna and Hellman's mayonnaise. This production took him all over the world from New York City's Broadway (Theatre World Award) to London's West End with Albert Finney to the Hollywood movie starring Finney and Mathew Modine and directed by the late great Alan J. Pakula. From that point on, Kevin's career continued to gather speed. He starred as Richard Gere's brother in the rural family drama "Miles From Home" directed by Gary Sinise, followed by Norman Jewison's "In Country" with Bruce Willis. The hit film "Sleeping With the Enemy" in which Anderson starred opposite Julia Roberts established him as one of Hollywood's most promising young leading men.

Kevin has always been drawn to compelling characters and powerful dramas. Throughout his career, he has shown exceptional range and performed in an eclectic array of material ranging from "Liebestraum" with director Mike Figgis, "Hoffa" portraying Bobby Kennedy opposite Jack Nicholson in the title role, "Rising Sun" with Sean Connery and Wesley Snipes, to the romantic comedy "The Night We Never Met" with Mathew Broderick and Annabella Sciorra. He has gone from musicals like "Sunset Boulevard" opposite Patti Lupone in London's West End, to Tony nominated American classics on Broadway like "Death of a Salesman" opposite Brian Dennehy, "Orpheus Descending" opposite Vanessa Redgrave, and "Come Back Little Sheba" opposite Epatha S. Merkersen, or the "Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore" with Olympia Dukakis. He has performed in independent films at Sundance, and then on to both cable and network television. Other notable film work includes the Miramax release "Firelight" opposite French actress Sophie Marceau, the drama "Eye of God" by actor/writer/director Tim Blake Nelson, and "A Thousand Acres" opposite Michelle Pfeiffer. Some other favorite feature films include "Doe Boy", "When Strangers Appear" with Radha Mitchell, "Charlotte's Web" in which he plays Dakota Fanning's father, and "Ruby's Bucket of Blood", in which he starred as a white blues singer who falls in love with an African American nightclub owner (Angela Basset).

Kevin is perhaps best known for his performance of Father Ray, the maverick Catholic priest in ABC's ground-breaking television series "Nothing Sacred" for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award in 1998. He also received Best Actor nominations from the Viewers for Quality Television, the Online Film and Television Association, the Television Critics Association, and a Peabody Award for the creators and production. Other forays into television include the critically acclaimed but short-lived Jerry Bruckheimer series "Skin" opposite Olivia Wilde. Other favorite television films include "Power and Beauty" opposite the stunning Natasha Henstridge and directed by Susan Seidelman, "Monday Night Mayhem" with John Turturro and directed by Ernest Dickerson, and "Hunt for the Unicorn Killer" (Best Actor Nomination - Online Film and Television Association) opposite Naomi Watts.

Subsequent returns to the stage have been as varying as they were lauded, from the world premiere of "Sunset Boulevard" in London as the original musical Joe Gillis opposite Patti LuPone, to "Death of a Salesman" (Tony nomination, Drama Desk Award, Outer Critics Circle Award), to a heartbreaking turn in "I Never Sang for My Father" with John Mahoney at Steppenwolf Theatre, to the cult hit "Brooklyn the Musical" on Broadway with Karen Olivo, to "Come Back Little Sheba" (Outer Critics Circle Award nomination) on Broadway with "Law and Order's" S. Epatha Merkersen and Zoe Kazan, to a hit stage production of the Stephen King epic "The Shawshank Redemption" in the starring role of Andy Dufresne in Dublin and London's West End. He starred as John the Baptist opposite Jessica Chastain and Al Pacino in the stage production of Oscar Wilde's "Salome" which was made into a documentary entitled "Wilde Salome" directed by Pacino. Other notable Off-Broadway, London, and Chicago productions include "Pal Joey" in the title role, "Moonchildren" (Cynthia Nixon), "Brilliant Traces" (Joan Cusack), "The Red Address", "Speaking in Tongues" (Karen Allen), "Summer and Smoke" (Amanda Plummer), "Dinner With Friends (Samantha Bond, Elizabeth McGovern), and "Earthly Possessions" (Joan Allen) and "Detroit" (Laurie Metcalfe) at Steppenwolf.

Kevin is a graduate of Chicago's Goodman School of Drama and hails from Gurnee, Illinois, a small farming community bordering Wisconsin in the heart of the Midwest - a true blue cow town. Kevin's goals and ideals remain as steadfast today as they were as when he first started acting. Acting has never been about fame and fortune for Kevin. His only desire has been to be the best actor that he can possibly be. To achieve this, he realized early on that to be successful, he had to strive to work with the best material, on the most interesting, challenging new roles, and to seek to work with the most talented and inspiring directors and actors that he could possibly find. These same goals remain as constant and true today, and he is truly honored to have worked with such amazing and creative powerhouses throughout his career.
