Vincent D'Onofrio Biography

Vincent D'Onofrio is one of the most popular and richest Actor who was born on June 30, 1959 in Bensonhurst, United States.

Vincent Philip D’Onofrio (/d ə ˈ n ɒ f r i oʊ / ; born June 30, 1959) is an American actor, producer, director, and singer.

He has been nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award and two Saturn Awards, winning one for his supporting role in Men in Black.

Leonard Lawrence, an overweight, clumsy Marine recruit in the movie Full Metal Jacket. On a tip from friend Matthew Modine, D’Onofrio was urged to send audition tapes to director Stanley Kubrick, in England. Four tapes later, D’Onofrio landed the role. Originally, the character of Pvt. Lawrence had been written as a “skinny ignorant redneck”; however, Kubrick believed the role would have more impact if the character were big and clumsy. D’Onofrio gained 5 stone / 70 lb (32 kg) for the role, bringing his weight to 20 stone / 280 lb (130 kg). This remains the record for most weight gained by an actor for a film.
