Like a fine wine, Sam Elliott just gets better with age. The gravelly voiced, often mustachioed actor has only seen more and more success as he's gotten older, springing from bit parts and character roles in the 1960s and '70s, to supporting spots in the '80s and '90s. He's taking on lead roles now, such as in the new Paramount+ series "1883."

How did he get to where he is now? It's been quite a journey, with some twists and turns even his biggest fans might not expect. From a tiny part in a classic movie to voicing a famous bear to bona fide stardom, this is the untold truth of Sam Elliott.
