While many people today are familiar with Jeff Bridges’ work (*Tron*, *The Big Lebowski*, *The Fabulous Baker Boys* with brother Beau, etc), it should be noted that came from Hollywood royalty. His father, Lloyd Bridges, had an illustrious career which spanned 65 years. Among the most famous of his works were *High Noon* (1952), the TV show *Sea Hunt* (1958-61), *Death Race* (1973), the miniseries *Roots* (1977), and *Telethon* (1977).
He enjoyed a renaissance in the later years of his career, with comedic roles in movies, like *Airplane!* (1980), *Weekend Warriors* (1986), *Hot Shots* (1991), and *Honey, I Blew Up the Kid* (1992). Lloyd Bridges died of natural causes in 1998, at the age of 85.

The Little Lebowski.
Every time this gets posted, I’m amazed at how 1951 Lloyd Bridges could seemingly just step into 2023 and look completely in style.
He could time travel to today looking like that and fit right in. Plus, he was super hot.
*Fuck* those **Bridges** and their hair!
The dad abides
I thought it was Sean Penn.
It’s go time!
Oddly enough, Sean Penn’s father was Leo Penn and his mother was Eileen Ryan. They all lived in the same neighborhood as Lloyd Bridges. Sean Penn looks exactly like Lloyd and nothing at all like Leo. Funny.
Lloyd was a beautiful man. Sea Hunt? Woof!
Sean Penn has a Time Machine.
Am I the only one getting Kurt Russel vibes?
Wait, is his dad the admiral in hotshots?
