Jon Voight

"Let's see, I am the Lord your God, that can stay. Thou shalt not kill. That's gotta go. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife. Meh, no one ever remembers that one, anyway."

Jon Voight (December 29, 1938– ) is an American actor. Among his many roles, his most notable was perhaps in the film Anaconda, where he played the Old Guy Eaten by the Snake. By the end of the summer of 2007, it was the shotgun-toting Secretary of Defense instead.

Oh, and he was in Midnight Cowboy, Deliverance and season 7 of 24. And won an Best Actor Oscar. But that's all of subsidiary importance, frankly.

Trivia

• He's Angelina Jolie's dad.
• Despite being in much of 24's seventh season, Voight's character never interacted with Glenn Morshower's - probably all the better for Voight.
• He thinks Barack Obama is making our country weak and "oppressing" the people. He should know, because he led the fight against giant freaking robots - and WON.
• He has the distinction of having the only Golden Raspberry Award nomination for the entire movie (worst supporting actor) (he "lost") a far cry from the 7 nominations Revenge of the Fallen earned. In his defense, he was featured in a couple of stinkers that year (we're looking at you Bratz) but Norbit was too strong a contender.
