Early life

Stockwell was born in Galveston, Texas, the son of Ellen Richards and John S. Samuels III, an attorney.[4][5] Stockwell's sister is historian Evelyn Welch, and his niece is singer and songwriter Florence Welch.[6]

While he was in college at Harvard University near Boston, he commuted to New York City to appear on episodes of the soap opera Guiding Light.[7]

Career

Early in his career, Stockwell was an international model. During this time, he became a friend of pop artist Andy Warhol.[8] Stockwell's first feature film as an actor came in a small role in 1981's So Fine. His best known roles came in the 1983 comedy film Losin' It as Spider; later that year, in the John Carpenter horror film Christine as Dennis Guilder; and the 1985 comedy film My Science Project as Michael Harlan.[9] Also in 1985, he appeared in the poorly received City Limits; though unsuccessful at the box office, it was later riffed in an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000.

He performed in the highly acclaimed 1985 TV mini-series North and South. In 1986, he appeared in Top Gun as Cougar. He made guest appearances on TV shows including The Young Riders and Friday the 13th: The Series.

Stockwell has directed several films, including Cheaters (2000), Crazy/Beautiful (2001), Blue Crush (2002), Into the Blue (2005), Turistas (2006), Heart (2009),[10] the Gina Carano star-vehicle In the Blood, and the 2016 Kickboxer reboot Kickboxer: Vengeance.[11]

Stockwell also wrote the screenplay for the 2001 film Rock Star.

Personal life

Stockwell briefly dated actress Bianca Jagger and model Barbara Allen.[8]

Stockwell is married to Helene Henderson, a chef and caterer.[12] They have three children.[13] His mother, Zsuzsana Nagy is Hungarian and his father from Irish ancestry.[citation needed]
