Brian Dennehy (Bobby Knight)

Brian attended Columbia University and made his New York stage debut at age 37. Early in his career, he worked on TV movies before making his way to bit parts in films. Soon, his overwhelming presence and Irish charm earned him leading roles, oftentimes cracking heads as a cop or a military man in movies like F/X, Cocoon, 10, and even chasing a very angry Sylvester Stallone all over a mountain in Rambo: First Blood. More recently, Dennehy has spent more time TV acting and directing but still had time to make a cameo in one of the all-time classics, Tommy Boy. Dennehy has appeared in over 110 movies or television shows. He's shown up in tons of TV shows, from Just Shoot Me to Dynasty to Kojak to his own series, The Fightin Fitzgeralds. Before jumping into the red sweater for Bobby Knight, Dennehy won the Tony Award for his performance in Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman.
