With the energy and vigor he brings to his roles, it's hard to believe that Jack Nicholson is pushing early-80s! But if you don't believe he was born back on April 22, 1937, then simply put: "You can't handle the truth!" Nicholson's characters have been so iconic and have spawned many famous one-liners (see what we did there?) from his movies over the years.
Currently residing in Los Angeles, California, Nicholson was actually born as John Joseph Nicholson in Neptune City, New Jersey. Known for playing somewhat dark and rebellious characters, Nicholson began his acting career in the 1950s and hasn't looked back since. That's nearly six decades of cinematic material. In that time, he's won Golden Globes, Academy Awards, and in 1994 at the age of 57 he became one of the youngest actors ever to be bestowed with the Lifetime Achievement Award by the American Film Institute.
