Emilio Estevez

In 1979, Emilio traveled to the Philippines with his father for the filming of “Apocalypse Now”. He appeared as a messenger kid in the film, but the director deleted his part from the final cut. He opted to pursue a profession as an actor after completing his high school studies. Moreover, he decided to preserve his father’s original surname (Estévez) in order to maintain his own identity as an actor. In 1980, he began acting in television movies, the most noteworthy of which being ‘Seventeen Going on Nowhere,’ which aired on the ‘ABC’ network. In 1982, he received a major role in the film ‘Tex,’ in which he co-starred with Matt Dillon. The film, which was based on S.E. Hinton’s novel, was a career-defining moment for him.

He made his film debut in Francis Ford Coppola’s ‘The Outsiders,’ a stunning adaptation of Hinton’s novel, in 1983. Dillon, Rob Lowe, Tom Cruise, Patrick Swayze, Ralph Macchio, and Thomas Howell were among his co-stars. In 1984, he starred as ‘Otto Maddox,’ a young punk musician in Alex Cox’s film ‘Repo Man.’ The science-fiction comedy has now become a cult classic. He starred in John Hughes’ comedy-drama ‘The Breakfast Club,’ released in 1985.

In 1985, he wrote a screenplay with Tom Cruise for the film ‘That Was Then… This Is Now’. He sold it to ‘Paramount Pictures,’ but the movie only had a modest box office success.  In ‘Saint Elmo’s Fire,’ he played a college graduate who became the cover story of ‘New York’ magazine. He appeared in Stephen King’s only directorial effort, ‘Maximum Overdrive,’ in 1986. Despite the inclusion of best-selling tracks such as ‘You Shook Me All Night Long,’ ‘Who Made Who,’ and ‘Hells Bells,’ the film’s soundtrack failed to excite critics and fans.

More Professional Works

He went on to star in and direct the film Wisdom,’ in addition to directing it. Despite the film’s monetary failure, it cemented his reputation as one of the youngest actors to create and direct a picture. He starred as ‘Bill Reimers’ in the buddy police action comedy film ‘Stakeout’ in 1987. As a result of the film’s success, a sequel, ‘Another Stakeout,’ was released (1993). With the release of ‘The Mighty Ducks,’ a successful ‘Disney’ film in 1992, he had box office success. In the sequel, ‘D3: The Mighty Ducks,’ he made a cameo appearance. Moreover, he worked as the director for the film ‘The War at Home,’ released in 1996. The film received favorable reviews from critics and received nominations for two ‘ALMA’ awards.

However, due to insufficient distribution, it was an only a mediocre success. With films like ‘Rated X’ and ‘Behind the Green Door,’ he had only minor success for nearly a decade. He earned the ‘Hollywood Film Award’ in 2006 for his performance in and direction of the film ‘Bobby’. He created and directed the 2018 film ‘The Public’ after taking a sabbatical from performing and directing.
