How famous is Angelina's father Jon Voight?

Answer 1

I think it depends how old you are.....I was a child of the 80's and when they first starting talking about Angelina's relationship to Jon Voight, I had no idea who he was by name. I knew him from looking at him as he was in Mission Impossible and some other movies I'd seen, but by name I had no idea. He was in some very important movies back in his day and seems to have talent to spare. Now, my parents, who were familiar with all of his work and are much closer to his age than I am, of course---he's famous to them (creepy, but famous). I guess like father, like daughter huh?

So when all of our kids know the hot, new actress Shiloh, we can carry on about her famous mom!

Answer 2

he is very very famous
