A star of his own on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was bestowed upon Willem Dafoe. The ceremony to officially award Dafoe with his Walk of Fame star took place on Monday. Ellen K, an iHeart Media personality and fellow Walk of Famer, served as the event’s host. Patricia Arquette and Pedro Pascal made cameo appearances as speakers. Dafoe’s star, located at 6284 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, is the 2,768th addition to the well-known promenade.
Pascal described his first impression of Dafoe’s career as follows: “Willem has shown me in the earliest stages of my development that there is no one way to create a character, to steal a scene, to terrify, to seduce, to make people laugh, and to be a leading man.” “My father and I watched Platoon in the theatre, and Dafoe made me cry so hard that he had to send me to the toilet.” Even though I was just eleven years old in 1986, my dream was still to become an actress. Dafoe reinterprets rebelliousness and creativity as being centred around kindness, generosity, integrity, and good times. Willem is a fantastic buddy and a lot of fun.” Hollywood Walk of Fame producer Ana Martinez also praised the entry, saying, “Willem Dafoe is an incredibly talented and versatile actor who has become a prominent figure in the film industry,” in a statement. “He has enthralled audiences with his outstanding performances, frequently bringing to life characters with a distinct depth and passion. It gives the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce great pleasure to present Willem with the first 2024 Walk of Fame star!
Dafoe is a well-known actor who has garnered praise for his versatility in a range of roles. Among his most well-known roles is that of Green Goblin from Sam Raimi’s first Spider-Man movie, which he returned to in Spider-Man: No Way Home. He most recently acted alongside Emma Stone in the critically acclaimed picture Poor Things, which was just nominated for Best Motion Picture at the Golden Globes. Dafoe was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor. Additionally, Dafoe has a number of planned projects. One of them is Rogert Eggers’ reimagining of Nosferatu, which Dafoe—who portrayed the original Nosferatu actor Max Schreck in the 2000 film Shadow of the Vampire—will find intriguing. Dafoe will also feature in the next Beetlejuice sequel, which opens in theatres on September 6, 2024.
