The Twilight Zone put the spotlight on many stars.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Twilight Zone emerged as a trendsetter in early 1960s television while offering employment to young actors who would later become mainstream stars. Created by Rod Serling, the anthology series was usually geared toward the genres of horror, sci-fi, and fantasy.
9 Ron Howard Ron Howard has established himself as the prominent filmmaker behind the Oscar-winning A Beautiful Mind, Apollo 13, Rush and many other modern classics. But he started his initial Hollywood career as an actor with credits like Happy Days and The Andy Griffith Show . But even before his performance as Andy Griffith’s on-screen son, a then-five-year-old Howard made an appearance in the 1959 Twilight Zone episode, “Walking Distance.
6 Robert Duvall Later enjoying critical acclaim for his Oscar-nominated performance as Tom Hagen in The Godfather, Robert Duvall began his feature film acting career with a mostly dialogue-less part in the 1962 legal classic, To Kill A Mockingbird. A year later, he had a meatier part in The Twilight Zone’s “Miniature.” Duvall starred as Charley Parkes, a socially-awkward misfit burdened by his monotonous job and overprotective mother.
3 Carol Burnett Carol Burnett has enjoyed her status as a comedic legend ever since she debuted the CBS variety show named after her. But before The Carol Burnett Show began airing, a younger Burnett appeared in the relatively unfunny “Cavender is Coming.” In fact, what some might not know about this Twilight Zone episode is that it was actually designed as a sitcom pilot. Jesse White played a guardian angel who tries to impress a theater employee played by Burnett.
