Hmm. Definitely not what I expected, but given the director's filmography, this tracks... 

old hollywood, film trailer / stills / clips, film - historical

Yes, he was in Titanic, but he's still very much alive LOL. His career is just not that impressive after Titanic for some reason.

My bff and I bond over how messed up it is that we crush on abusive Cal over Jack and it strictly was because Billy was so freaking hot. It’s awful.

Yes, he was just >>> Leo in the hotness area. And they actually invested in that wig which SHOCKED me. How has every wig in movies since looked terrible compared to that one?

Wait. He was already balding by then and it was a wig?? Damn, agreed on your last sentence.

Oh yeah, he def was LOL.

Here's his scene from Poetic Justice in 1993.

I believe you but one could argue he shaved his head for this role (jk I can see the hairline, kinda). With that, holy crap, I don’t think I’ve seen this movie since it was on repeat on TBS or TNT (can’t remember which, probs both). Time for a rewatch!

Watch Demon Knight too LOL.

But him being bald was played for laughs in Only You - he was a himbo wearing a wig, but then the wig gets pulled off during a fight.

Well, might as well add his rare starring role in The Phantom, too LOL. He's not a lead in much at all.

Oh, I am aware of and have recently watched The Phantom 😆 it does suck that aside from Titanic that movie is his claim to fame.

I think other than Titanic his main claim to fame is Zoolander.

Just a small role, but he was one of Biff's cronies in Back to the Future & Back to the Future Pt. 2.

Yessss! I always clock him and his random…accent. I was going to say southern but it’s more stereotypical cowboy 😂😂

As I’m rewatching the movie I’m zeroing in on his hair and yup, you can tell it’s a wig but they did a damn good job! Obv, since I didn’t know I thought it was his real hair.

They’re about to crash into the iceberg and since I’m streaming rather than watching my VHS, it’s time to stop watching and go to a different movie.
