ArtyI used to think that John Travolta was typecast by "Welcome Back, Kotter." I could not take him seriously in Saturday Night Fever or Grease.
However, since then he has become a great villain and an actor that I enjoy watching. He has matured well.

Knew about the voice acting - which was likely due to as a response to the car accident.

Mark
Hamill (

) had his serious car accident in 1977, as the filming of
Star Wars was wrapping up. He had plastic surgery, and went on to do many films and TV shows after the accident, including
The Empire Strikes Back and
Return of the Jedi.
His career in voice work didn't really take off until the early/mid 90s, so it wasn't in response to the car accident.

Most of them took it in stride, but Tina Louise (Ginger) was pretty pissed about it, refusing to appear in the subsequent made-for-TV movies.

You forget Fall Guy? It was on longer than the SMDM. He's been working steady to today.
