He also voiced Combat Carl in the Toy Story franchise. Weathers grew up admiring actors such as Woody Strode, whose combination of physique and acting prowess in Spartacus made an early impression.
And hopefully I can inspire someone else to do good work as well," he told the Detroit News last year. In high school, athletics took him down another path but he would reunite with his first love later in life.
Благодаря своему вкладу в кино, телевидение, искусство и спорт, он оставил неизгладимый след и признан во всем мире и среди разных поколений.
Он был любимым братом, отцом, дедушкой, партнером и другом», — говорится в заявлении. Соболезнования семье выразила звезда «Рокки» Сильвестр Сталлоне. Он отметил, что Уэзерс сыграл определяющую роль в его жизни.
Он был просто великолепен. Покойся с миром и никогда не сдавайся», — написал актер в своих соцсетях. Арнольд Шварценеггер, с которым Уэзерс играл в «Хищнике», считает коллегу легендой.
И уж точно мы не смогли бы так замечательно провести время, снимая его.
Одновременно Уэзерс развлекался тем, что между спортивными сезонами играл на сцене местного театра. Однако его приоритетом был футбол.
В двадцать три года присоединился к канадской команде «Львы Британской Колумбии». Около двух лет молодой человек играл в Канадской футбольной лиге. В общей сложности провел восемнадцать матчей.
В 1974 году ушел из спорта и начал активно заниматься актерской карьерой. Около двух лет Карл перебивался проходящими ролями в телесериалах и неприметных фильмах - «Бактаун, США», «4 двойки», «Пятница Фостер». Свою первую значительную роль харизматичного боксера-чемпиона Аполло Крида в фильме «Рокки» актер сыграл в 1976 году.
Фильм по сценарию Сталлоне стал началом к восхождению Уэзерса на голливудский олимп.

В США умер известный по фильму "Рокки" актер Карл Уэзерс

He served on the Directors Guild of America board and various committees, helping others navigate the job.
Hall had become a linebackers coach for the Raiders. Weathers called him to let him know he was interested in Oakland, and he was given a shot at making the roster. So he changed positions to linebacker and played a large portion of his snaps on special teams. Weathers donned the number 49 for the 1970 season. Upshaw, the five-time All Pro guard, hooked the rookie by extending his arm and knocked Weathers off his feet.
Stabler and Weathers were both rookies under Madden in 1970. Today, Carl would be a safety. That would have been the perfect position for him. He had everything it took. He was smart, he could run like a deer and he was chiseled. He was a magnificent athlete. He would probably fit in really, really well as a running back. Madden sat down with Weathers and gave him the news that they planned to cut him, but Weathers says what he heard next hurt more than any left hook or form tackle. Raymond describes Weathers as sensitive, but in the best of ways.
But Carl is a sensitive human being.
Уэзерс также сыграл Крида в фильмах « Рокки 2 » 1979 , « Рокки 3 » 1982 и « Рокки 4 » 1985. В 2019 году Уэзерс появился в первом сезоне сериала « Мандалорец » в роли Грифа Карги, в 2020 году вернулся к роли во втором сезоне. За роль Грифа Карги Уэзерс был номинирован на премию «Эмми» как лучший приглашённый актер в драматическом телесериале [9]. Скончался 1 февраля 2024 года в своём доме в Лос-Анджелесе в возрасте 76 лет.
Портал Deadline опубликовал сообщение семьи звезды Голливуда о его смерти. Родные актера сообщили, что он скончался во сне 1 февраля 2024 года.
