Michael John Douglas (born September 5, 1951), known professionally as Michael Keaton, is an American actor. He is known for his leading roles in a wide variety of genre films. He's received numerous accolades including a Emmy Award, and four Screen Actors Guild Awards as well as nominations for an Academy Award and a BAFTA Award. In 2016, he was named Officer of Order of Arts and Letters in France.
He gained early acclaim for his comedic roles in Night Shift (1982), Mr. Mom (1983), and Beetlejuice (1988). He continued to star in films often portraying a wide range of roles including Clean and Sober (1988), Much Ado About Nothing (1993), The Paper (1994), Multiplicity (1996), Jackie Brown (1997), Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005), and The Other Guys (2010). Keaton found a career resurgence with his role in Alejandro González Iñárritu's Birdman (2014) for which he received a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor—Motion Picture Musical or Comedy and a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor. He has since acted in Spotlight (2015), The Founder (2016), Worth (2020), and The Trial of the Chicago 7 (2020).
Keaton also gained stardom portraying DC Comics superhero Batman / Bruce Wayne in Batman (1989) and Batman Returns (1992) as well as the upcoming film The Flash (2023). He has also joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe portraying supervillain Vulture / Adrian Toomes in Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) and Morbius (2022). He has also voiced roles for Porco Rosso (1992), Cars (2006), Toy Story 3 (2010), and Minions (2015).
He has also starred in television projects such as the HBO film Live from Baghdad (2002) where he played journalist Robert Wiener for which he earned a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Miniseries or Television Film nomination. He portrayed Dr. Samuel Finnix in Hulu limited series Dopesick (2020) for which he earned a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie.
Keaton first appeared on TV in the Pittsburgh public television programs Where the Heart Is and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood (1975). For Mister Rogers he played one of the "Flying Zookeeni Brothers" and served as a full-time production assistant. (In 2003, after Fred Rogers' death, Keaton hosted a PBS memorial tribute, Fred Rogers: America's Favorite Neighbor; in 2018, he hosted a 50th anniversary special of the series for PBS, Mister Rogers: It's You I Like.) Keaton also worked as an actor in Pittsburgh theatre; he played the role of Rick in the Pittsburgh premiere of David Rabe's Sticks and Bones with the Pittsburgh Poor Players. He also performed stand-up comedy during his early years to supplement his income.
Keaton's career was given another major boost when he was again cast by Tim Burton, this time as the title comic book superhero of the 1989 film Batman. Warner Bros. received thousands of letters of complaint by fans who believed Keaton was the wrong choice to portray Batman. However, Keaton's performance in the role ultimately earned widespread acclaim from both critics and audiences, and Batman became one of 1989's most successful films.
According to Les Daniels's reference book Batman: The Complete History, Keaton initially believed the film would be similar in tone to the 1960s TV series starring Adam West but he understood the darker, brooding side of Batman the film was going for after reading Frank Miller's comic book miniseries, The Dark Knight Returns, which he portrayed to much fan approval. Keaton later reprised the role for the sequel Batman Returns (1992), which was another critically acclaimed success. He was initially set to reprise the role again for a third Batman film, even going as far as to show up for costume fitting. However, when Burton was dropped as director of the film, Keaton left the franchise as well. He was reportedly dissatisfied with the screenplay approved by the new director, Joel Schumacher. According to the A&E Biography episode on Keaton, after he had refused the first time (after meetings with Schumacher), Warner Bros. offered him $15 million, but Keaton steadfastly refused and was replaced by Val Kilmer in Batman Forever (1995).
