Birthday: Oct 22, 1952

Birthplace: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA

Tall, gangly, and oddly handsome, stage, screen, and television actor Jeff Goldblum is an unlikely sex symbol. But for many women, especially those fond of eccentric intellectual types, he fits the role perfectly. Known for the range of quirky, often otherworldly characters he has portrayed, Goldblum is adept at playing lead and supporting roles in dramas and comedies alike. A native of Pittsburgh, PA, where he was born October 22, 1952, Goldblum moved to New York at the age of 17 to pursue an acting career. He got his start at Sanford Meisner's distinguished Neighborhood Playhouse, and in the '70s began performing in a wide variety of on and off-Broadway productions. When he was 22, Goldblum made his film debut with a small role as a rapist in Michael Winner's brutal revenge drama Death Wish (1974). He was performing on-stage in the El Grande de Coca Cola review when Robert Altman gave him a small part in California Split (1974) and a slightly larger role in Nashville (1975). Afterwards, Goldblum was steadily employed as a bit player in both major and minor features, turning in one of his most notable performances as a nervous houseguest struggling to remember his mantra in the Los Angeles-set segment of Annie Hall (1977). In 1980, Goldblum branched out into television, starring opposite Ben Vereen in the short-lived television detective comedy Tenspeed and Brown Shoe. As Brown Shoe, Goldblum played an uptight stockbroker trying to make it as a hardboiled private detective. Although the role may have given him greater recognition, the actor gained his first really favorable reviews playing a tabloid magazine reporter in The Big Chill (1983). This led to leading roles in such films as Into the Night (1985), where Goldblum played an aerospace engineer opposite Michelle Pfeiffer, and Silverado (also 1985), which cast him as a villainous gambler. In 1986, he had his first hit movie with David Cronenberg's terrifying sci-fi-horror film The Fly (1986), playing a driven scientist whose research turns him into a gruesome mutant. His co-star was his then-wife, Geena Davis, whom he met while they were on the set of the comedy-thriller Transylvania 6-5000 (1985). The couple divorced in the early '90s and Goldblum then embarked on a highly publicized relationship with actress Laura Dern that broke up in the mid-'90s.In 1989, Goldblum made a favorable transatlantic impression in the British romantic comedy The Tall Guy, playing a perpetually unemployed actor who is cast as the lead of a musical about the Elephant Man. He continued to work steadily throughout the subsequent decade, appearing in films of markedly varying quality. He found great success in Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park, playing a mathematician in one of the decade's biggest blockbusters. In 1996, Goldblum again explored blockbuster territory with a leading role as a computer genius in Independence Day. He reprised his role from Jurassic Park in that film's sequel 1997 sequel, The Lost World: Jurassic Park. He starred opposite Eddie Murphy in the notorious bomb Holy Man.At the beginning of the next decade Goldblum worked primarily in independent films such as Burr Steers' debut Igby Goes Down, and playing the romantic and professional rival to Bill Murray in Wes Anderson's The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. In 2006 he scored a role in his most mainstream film in quite sometime as part of the impressive ensemble in Barry Levinson's satire Man of the Year. In 2009, Goldblum joined the cast of Law & Order: Criminal Intent in the show's eighth season to play the role of Detective Zach Nichols. 2010 found the actor co-starring with Harrison Ford and Diane Keaton for the showbiz comedy Morning Glory. In 2014, he re-teamed with Anderson in The Grand Budapest Hotel. The following year, he appeared opposite Johnny Depp in Mortdecai and began filming his role in the long-awaited Indepdendence Day sequel, due in 2016.

Oh, yeah. Oooh, ahhh, that's how it always starts. Then later there's running and screaming.

Ian Malcolm:

It's fine if you wanna put your name on something but STOP putting it on other people's headstones.

Ian Malcolm:

If I may... Um, I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here, it didn't require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it, and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now [bangs on the table]

Ian Malcolm:

Don't you see the danger, John, inherent in what you're doing here? Genetic power is the most awesome force the planet's ever seen, but you wield it like a kid that's found his dad's gun.

Ian Malcolm:	But again, how do you know they're all female? Does somebody go out into the park and pull up the dinosaurs' skirts?

Dr. Ellie Sattler:	Dinosaurs...eat man. Woman inherits the Earth.

Ian Malcolm:

That is one big pile of shit.

Avnet:

This isn't your lucky day, barber. Your life is leaving you and I'm killing you.

You did it. You crazy son of a bitch you did it.

Ian Malcolm:

But John, if the Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down the pirates don't eat the tourists.

Ian Malcolm:	Ah, now eventually you do plan to have dinosaurs on your, on your dinosaur tour, right? Hello?
John Hammond:	I really hate that man.

Seth Brundle:

I want to be the first insect politician.

David Levinson:

What I'm trying to say is--if you stay I'll hurt you.

David Levinson:

Time's up...

Seth Brundle:

You're a fucking drag, y'know that?

Ian Malcolm:

Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, that they didn't stop to think whether they should.

Ian Malcolm:	Mommy is very angry
Ian Malcolm:	Mommy is very angry.

Veronica Quaife:	What does the disease want?
Seth Brundle:	It wants to turn me into something else. I think I'm becoming...Brundlefly. Don't you think that's worth a Nobel Prize or two?

Nick Deezy:	'Your major life decision is probably 'How high should I comb my hair today?"

Ian Malcolm:	Yeah, three double cheeseburgers with everything.
Nick Van Owen:	No onions on mine.
Sarah Harding:	And an apple turnover!

Ian Malcolm:	(Prepares to slide down the rope) I'm coming right back, I give you my word.
Ian Malcolm:	[prepares to slide down the rope] I'm coming right back, I give you my word.
Kelly Curtis:	But you NEVER keep your word!

David Levinson:	You're obsessed with "fat lady".
David Levinson:	You're obsessed with 'fat lady'.

Ian Malcolm:

And now I'm sitting here, by myself, talking to myself. That's chaos theory.

Professor Brody:

Bad talking cat!

Peter Ludlow:	It is our board of directors which I must face, not my uncle. Really, you must trust me, your problems are about to be rendered moot. In an few weeks' time, they'll be long forgotten.
Ian Malcolm:	(grabs Ludlow) Not by me.
Peter Ludlow:	Careful. This suit cost more than your education.

Roland Tembo:	The Rex was just fed, so it won't stalk us for food.
Ian Malcolm:	Just fed? I assume you're talking about Eddie? You might want to show a little respect, the man saved our lives by giving his.
Roland Tembo:	Then his troubles are over. My point is, the predators don't hunt when they're not hungry.
Nick Van Owen:	No, only humans do.
Roland Tembo:	Oh, you're breaking our hearts. Saddle up! Let's get this moveable feast on the way!

Ian Malcolm:

Yeah, oooh, aaah, that's how it always starts. Then later there's running, and screaming.

Alan Grant:	We're out of the job.
Ian Malcolm:	Don't you mean extinct?

Ian Malcolm:

Mama's very angry.

Ian Malcolm:	God creates dinosaurs, God destroys dinosaurs, God creates Man, Man kills God, Man brings back dinosaurs.
Dr. Ellie Sattler:	[sarcastic] Dinosaurs eat Man, Woman inherits the Earth.

Ian Malcolm:

God, I hate being right all the time.

Ian Malcolm:

[to Ludlow] Taking dinosaurs off this island is the worst idea in the long sad history of bad ideas, and I'm gonna be there when you learn that.

Ian Malcolm:

If there's one thing the history of evolution has taught us, it's that life will not be contained. Life breaks free, it expands to new territories, and crashes through barriers painfully, maybe even dangerously, but, uh, well, there it is.

David Levinson:	We're hit! We took a hit!
Capt. Steven Hiller:	We're not hit! We're not hit! Stop side-seat driving!

Eddie Carr:	Well, if you were even slightly qualified you might try flipping the on switch.
Kelly Curtis:	[Going in the trailer with Malcolm] Dad, are you mad?
Kelly Curtis:	[going in the trailer with Malcolm] Dad, are you mad?

John Hammond:	Condors are on the verge of extinction! If I were to create a flock of condors on this island, you wouldn't have anything to say!
Ian Malcolm:	This isn't some species that was obliterated by deforestation or the building of a dam. Dinosaurs had their shot and Nature selected them for extinction!

John Hammond:	How can we sit in the light of discovery and not act?
Ian Malcolm:	Oh what's so great about discovery? It's a violent, penetrative act that scars what it explores. What you call discovery, I call the rape of the natural world.

Ian Malcolm:	Youv'e got it and you slap it on a plastic lunch box, and you want to sell it(bangs on table) you want to sell it now.

Sarah Harding:	What's That?
Ian Malcolm:	Mommy's Very Angry.

Alan Grant:	Looks like we're out of a job.

Seth Brundle:

(to Veronica) - You're afraid to dive into the plasma pool, aren't you? You're afraid to be destroyed and recreated, aren't you? I'll bet you think that you woke me up about the flesh, don't you? But you only know society's straight line about the flesh. You can't penetrate beyond society's sick, gray, fear of the flesh. Drink deep, or taste not, the plasma spring! You see what I'm saying?
