Will Ferrell

Will Ferrell rose to fame as a cast member of 'Saturday Night Live,' before appearing on such major-screen comedies such as 'Elf"Anchorman," "Talladega Nights.' Will Ferrell was born in Irvine in the year 1967. He started his career in comedy as a member of the group based in Los Angeles, The Groundlings. He was an Saturday Night Live cast member for seven years , and he became a major comedic draw through off-color hits, such as Old School 2003 and Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy 2004. Ferrell co-founded Funny or Die, a well-known website that streams videos. He also achieved the success of voice-over actors in animated films , such as Megamind (2010). John William Ferrell was conceived in Irvine, California on July 16th 1967. The oldest child of Righteous Brothers keyboardist Lee Ferrell and teacher Kay Ferrell, Will was--by his own admission, not the class clown when he was an undergraduate at University High School. He was quiet and quiet, but he chose to be a football player with a record at the school for the highest number of field goals scored. Ferrell displayed a lack of outrageous, funny behavior that would make his career famous even in the suburban house he lived in. His mother, who was interviewed by Esquire and Esquire, stated Ferrell was pleasant and kind. "You remember those little Matchbox cars?" Will would line up his Matchbox cars by himself, and be totally happy. It would be a simple question "Do you want to go to Disneyland this morning?" or "You want your cars lined up?" And he'd have to think about the idea. Ferrell wasn't a straight man. A glimpse of Ferrell's comedic abilities was seen every morning in high school when the actor disguised himself to announce his day's events on the PA system. Upon graduation in 1986, Ferrell went to the University of Southern California at Los Angeles, where he was a member of the Delta Tau fraternity and pursued the field of sports journalism with a degree.
