Danny DeVito BiographyIn 1971, DeVito landed the role of Martini in an off-Broadway production of Ken Kesey's classic novel, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. That role led to DeVito's big break four years later, when Michael Douglas produced a film version of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and asked DeVito to revive his stage role. Widely praised by critics, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest swept the five major Academy Awards (best picture, actor, actress, director and screenplay) in 1976, catapulting DeVito into the national spotlight.
In 1978, DeVito auditioned for a new NBC series called Taxi. The show ran for five years, from 1978 to 1983, and DeVito won an Emmy Award for best supporting actor in 1981.
DeVito went on to star in scores of films throughout the 1980s, '90s and 2000s. He appeared with Jack Nicholson in the 1983 film Terms of Endearment and costarred with Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 1988 comedy Twins. In 1992, DeVito earned rave reviews for his turn as The Penguin, the vengeful villain in Batman Returns. Other notable film credits include Romancing the Stone (1984), Ruthless People (1986), Throw Momma from the Train (1987), The War of the Roses (1989), L.A. Confidential (1997) and Big Fish (2003). DeVito returned to television in 2005, starring in the cult hit FX series It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
In addition to acting, DeVito has also enjoyed considerable success as a director and producer. DeVito directed several episodes of Taxi and made his feature film directorial debut with the dark comedy Throw Momma from the Train, in which he also costarred with Billy Crystal. He has since directed half a dozen other feature films. DeVito owns his own production company, Jersey Films, earning producer credits on such well-regarded films as Pulp Fiction (1994), Erin Brockovich (2000) and Be Cool (2005).
