BIO

Former U.S. Marine drill instructor turned actor who made a triumphant breakthrough in mainstream cinema as the gung-ho drill instructor Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket in 1987. Ermey was subsequently quite successfully typecast as authority figures and various callous types for the remainder of his career. He had an unrivalled intensity and a solid screen presence.
