Christopher Plummer


Born on December 19, 1929, Canadian actor Arthur Christopher Orme Plummer is well known for his work in the theater, television, and film industry and has a career that spans more than seven decades. Plummer made his debut on Broadway back in 1954 and continued to act in starring roles on stage in the 1974 musical Cyrano as Cyrano de Bergerac and playing the titular roles in Barrymore, King Lear, and Macbeth. He made his film debut in the 1958 film Stage Struck by Sidney Lumet and received critical acclaim with audiences for his performance in the 1965 musical film The Sound of Music as Captain George von Trapp.

Plummer never got a college degree, which is something that he has regretted all his life, but we all know how that turned out for him, right? He has a total net worth of $20 million, even with the fortune he has now, at age 91 years old, we think it’s probably too late.
