Sean Penn
17 August 1960
Santa Monica, California, USA
Trods mange filmroller var Sean Penn i 1980’erne mest kendt som det aggressive brushoved, der var gift med Madonna. Han var dog et hit som stenet tjalder i ungdomsfilmen ”Øl, fis og rockmusik” (1983). I 90’erne har han for alvor markeret sig som skuespiller i "Dead Man Walking" (1995) og Woody Allens ”Dur & Mol” (1999), hvor han giver alt, hvad han har i sig i et dynamisk portræt af den slikkede pseudo-jazzlegende Emmett Ray.
Penn er også begyndt at instruere film - deriblandt "The Crossing Guard" (1995). Han tilbragte i 1987 32 dage i brummen for at banke en statist. Hans bror Chris kan ses sammen med Sean i ”For tæt på” (1986), hvor deres mor, Eileen Ryan, spiller deres bedstemor.
