Ed O'Neill
Known for
An American actor beloved for two defining television roles: the boorish Al Bundy on 'Married... with Children' and, in a complete reversal, the deadpan patriarch Jay Pritchett on 'Modern Family', which won him a following and awards recognition. On the big screen he voiced Hank the octopus in Pixar's 'Finding Dory' (2016) and appeared in films such as 'Wayne's World' (1992). A former college football player with a gruff, understated comic style, he mastered both crass sitcom farce and dry family comedy. He remains one of American television's most enduring and versatile comic leads.
