J.K. Simmons
Jonathan Kimble "J.K." Simmons, 9 Ocak 1955 tarihinde Grosse Pointe, Michigan, ABD'de dünyaya gelmiştir. Babasının üniversitede müzik profesörü olması nedeniyle ailesi sıkça taşınan Simmons, Ohio ve Montana'da büyüdü. Montana Üniversitesi'nde müzik ve seslendirme eğitimi alarak sahne sanatlarına olan yeteneğini geliştirdi. Kariyerine tiyatro sahnesinde başlayan Simmons, Seattle Repertuvar Tiyatrosu'nda yıllarca çalıştıktan sonra New York'a taşındı ve "Guys and Dolls", "Peter Pan" gibi önemli yapımlarla Broadway'de sahneye çıktı. Simmons, 1990'lı yıllarda televizyon ve sinemaya geçiş yaparak, kısa sürede sektörün en güvenilir ve tanınan karakter oyuncularından biri haline geldi. HBO'nun çığır açan hapishane draması "Oz"da (1997-2003) canlandırdığı acımasız neo-nazi Vern Schillinger rolü, onun ne kadar korkutucu ve dönüştürücü bir aktör olabildiğini gösterdi. Aynı dönemde, "Law & Order" serilerinde canlandırdığı polis psikiyatristi Dr. Emil Skoda karakteriyle de geniş kitlelerce tanındı. Ancak onu dünya çapında bir popüler kültür ikonuna dönüştüren rol, yönetmen Sam Raimi'nin "Örümcek Adam" (Spider-Man) üçlemesinde (2002-2007) canlandırdığı, puro içen ve sürekli bağıran gazete patronu J. Jonah Jameson oldu. Bu rolü o kadar benimsendi ki, yıllar sonra Marvel Sinematik Evreni'nde de aynı karakteri canlandırmak için geri döndü. Yıllar boyunca yüzlerce film ve dizi projesinde yer alarak istikrarlı bir kariyer sürdüren Simmons, kariyerinin zirvesine 2014 yapımı "Whiplash" filmiyle ulaştı. Filmde, genç bir bateristi (Miles Teller) psikolojik ve fiziksel sınırlarının ötesine iten acımasız ve saplantılı caz eğitmeni Terence Fletcher'ı canlandırdı. Bu performansı, sinema tarihinin en unutulmaz kötü karakter portrelerinden biri olarak kabul edildi ve ona En İyi Yardımcı Erkek Oyuncu dalında Akademi Ödülü (Oscar), Altın Küre, BAFTA ve SAG Ödülü dahil olmak üzere kazanılabilecek tüm büyük ödülleri getirdi. "Whiplash"in ardından kariyerine başrol ve önemli yardımcı rollerle devam eden Simmons, "Juno" (2007), "Aşk Kokan Şarkılar" (La La Land) (2016) ve "Being the Ricardos" (2021) gibi Oscar adayı filmlerde de rol aldı ve sonuncusuyla ikinci Oscar adaylığını kazandı. Kendine özgü derin ve komuta eden sesiyle aynı zamanda son derece başarılı bir seslendirme sanatçısıdır. "The Legend of Korra" dizisindeki Tenzin karakteri, "Zootropolis" (2016) filmindeki Belediye Başkanı Lionheart, popüler animasyon dizisi "Invincible"daki Omni-Man ve onlarca yıldır seslendirdiği Sarı M&M karakteriyle de tanınır. Çalışma ahlakı, çok yönlülüğü ve her rolüne getirdiği inandırıcılıkla, J.K. Simmons modern Hollywood'un en saygıdeğer kurumlarından biri olarak kabul edilmektedir.
