Who is Chris Sarandon?
American actor Christopher ‘Chris’ Sarandon was born under the zodiac sign Leo on 24 July , in Beckley, West Virginia USA. He has acting credits and is perhaps still known best for voicing the lead character Jack Skellington in the animated family fantasy movie “The Nightmare Before Christmas”, which also starred Danny Elfman and Catherine O’Hara, and was directed by Henry Selick. It follows King of Halloween Town Jack Skellington who’s just discovered Christmas Town, and is now trying to bring Christmas to his home; the movie won six of its 23 award nominations, including an Oscar nomination for Best Effects, Visual Effects.
Chris hasn’t had any roles in the past three years, but hasn’t officially retired from acting.
Education and early life
Chris was raised in Beckley alongside his brother John Peter Sarandon, by their Greek-born Turkish-American mother Cliffie (nee Cardullias) and American father Chris Sarandon; both of Chris’ parents were restaurateurs.
He studied at Woodrow Wilson High School and became interested in acting during his time there, appearing in many plays performed at the school; Chris was into several other activities as a teenag
Not all actors that look alike are in the &#;separated at birth&#; category. A resemblance can be a very fleeting thing, and many of the comparisons here span decades… Oscar winners and &#;80s werewolves alike.
Al Pacino / David Naughton Anthony Hopkins / Mikhail Baryshnikov Before Pacino II (around the time of Scarface), there was a pretty strong resemblance between the sweary thespian and the unlucky lead of American Werewolf in London. Naughton was born 11 years after Pacino. Best known in recent years for a 9-episode stint as Aleksandr Petrovsky in the season of Sex And The City, the legendary dancer has turned into Sir Anthony over the years. No more fava beans for him.
Ben Gazzara / Robert Desiderio Charlie Sheen / Balthazar Getty A TV regular on shows like The Sopranos and Ugly Betty, Desiderio&#;s longest stint was as Ted Melcher at the shank end of Knots Landing. A high forehead and compact chin gains him easy admittance to Jackie Treehorn&#;s exclusive locales. His name&#;s straight out of a Dickens novel, but Getty&#;s DNA seems to be sleeping in Martin Sheen&#;s guesthouse, even if those Dan Dare eyebrows and formidable c

The handsome, weird and worldly-looking Chris Sarandon has shown his versatility in everything from vampires to Jesus Christ in hypnotic performances that have been controversial but irresistible. He was born Christopher Sarandon, Jr. and raised in Beckley, West Virginia of Greek heritage on both sides (family surname originally Sarondonethes). His mother Cliffie (Cardullias) and father Christopher Sarandon, Sr. were restaurateurs.
As a teen, Chris appeared locally on the musical stage and played drums and sang back-up with a local band called The Teen Tones. His band toured following high school and backed up such music legends as Bobby Darin, Gene Vincent and Danny and the Juniors. Chris later attended West Virginia University majoring in speech, but appearing in such musical productions as "The Music Man" as Harold Hill. He went on to attend the Catholic University of America in Washington, DC, where he received his master's degree in theater and met first wife Susan Sarandon. They married in

So the only knowledge that I have of Chris Sarandon is that he was once married to Susan Sarandon and he is the bad guy from The Princess Bride.
As a child watching Princess Bride, I never though much about Prince Humperdinck as far as the looks department go. I mean he was the bad guy! And he had to compete with dreamboat Westley/Cary Elwes! And I was a child and hadn't even began to start forming my personal taste in the opposite sex.
Not too long ago, I watched Dog Day Afternoon for the first time ever. (I thought it was excellent by the way). I knew Chris Sarandon was in it, as the main character's lover, but I had no idea what he would look like. I was stunned to see that I actually thought he was quite handsome, or as handsome as a guy can be playing a disheveled individual that was just released from a mental institution.
Automatically I knew why I found him attractive. He looked like Mark Ruffalo! Apparently I was not the first person to make the connection. From the lovely people at "Totally Looks Like:"
I'm pretty sure Mark Ruffalo is perfect. Please watch all his shirtless scenes in The Kids are Alright and disagree with me. Just try a
