Bill Paxton

He blasted off in “Apollo 13” and he was out of this world in “Aliens,” now Bill Paxton is back to earth and better than ever in the new horror film “Frailty.” Bill says, “If you like a really good Stephen King thriller, you're going to like ‘Frailty.’ But it’s not for the weak of heart."

Paxton had a lot of heart for this project. He not only stars, but he also makes his directing debut. But Paxton didn’t find pulling double duty to be too difficult. He says, “I've never been more focused on anything in my whole life.”

Yet even with his impressive acting resume, fans can't seem to focus on anything but one of his first roles: obnoxious older brother Chet in “Weird Science.” Bill says, “I think if I do a thousand movies, my obituary will start by saying, played Chet in ‘Weird Science,’ and that's okay.”
