Samuel Gerard

Yeah.

Uh, so he played, was it Sam Gerard? Samuel Gerard?

Samuel Gerard.

Sam.

But they call him Gerard, so I don't-

But we've spoke about him as well, so I'm gonna go for a guy that was so good in the film that they made a sequel just for him.

And it's Big Sam Gerard.

Mm-hmm.

Love it.

[laughs]

What did you name of your character?

He's, uh, Sam Gerard.

Sam Gerard.

Cut to April of '98 and Tommy Lee Jones is cast in the film on the 1st of April.

His salary is apparently higher than the $10 million he earned from reprising his Oscar-winning role of US Marshal Sam Gerard in US Marshals, the 1998 sequel to The Fugitive.

Um, but yeah, the...

I don't know how much he got paid, but clearly it was less than 20 million 'cause that was what Jim Carrey was paid for The Cable Guy, and that was a big hole to do.

However, the police and a team of U.S.

Marshals headed by seasoned deputy Samuel Gerard are hot on his trail.

It was an enormous success making nearly $368 million worldwide.

and $44 million in the U.S., and it spent six weeks to top the box office throne at the top spot.

Uh, this man turns 80 today.

Colonel Phillips on Captain America, Agent K in Men in Black, US Marshal Sam Gerard in The Fugitive, Ashley Judd's parole officer in Double Jeopardy, and Al Gore's roommate at Harvard.

And I would say some of the hardest, strongest wrinkles on a face you'll ever see, Tommy Lee Jones.

That's correct, Zach.
