Woods’ career gained major traction in the 1980s, a decade that showcased his intensity and range—qualities that would define his work going forward. After rising to prominence in The Onion Field (1979), he quickly became known for complex, fast-talking characters who often walked the line between charm and volatility.
In 1983, Woods starred in David Cronenberg’s Videodrome, a sci-fi psychological thriller that earned cult status and demonstrated Woods’ ability to ground surreal material with unnerving realism. A year later, he played Max Bercovicz in Sergio Leone’s Once Upon a Time in America, opposite Robert De Niro—a performance he considers one of his personal favorites. That same year, he starred in Against All Odds, continuing a run of varied, high-profile roles.
He earned his first Oscar nomination for his portrayal of journalist Richard Boyle in Oliver Stone’s Salvador (1986), and just a year later, won his first Primetime Emmy for the TV film Promise. He added a second Emmy for My Name Is Bill W. (1989), solidifying his reputation as a force in both film and television.
By the end of the ‘80s, Woods had carved out a unique place in Hollywood—respected for his intensity, intelligence, and willingness to take risks with difficult characters. These qualities led to acclaimed roles in the '90s and beyond, from Casino and Nixon to Ghosts of Mississippi (earning him a second Oscar nomination) and Contact. His work as the voice of Hades in Disney’s Hercules (1997) introduced him to a new generation, and he continued working across genres, including in the legal drama Shark and the animated series Justice League Action.
Woods has maintained a presence in film, TV, and voice work across decades, with a career shaped in no small part by the risks and recognition he earned in the 1980s.
