Elliott Gould gained his first major slice of silver screen success with 1969's "Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice," which he starred in with Natalie Wood, Robert Culp, and Dyan Cannon. His performance in the polyamorous comedy would earn him an Academy Award nomination and a positive review from the notoriously blunt Roger Ebert. "Gould emerges, not so much a star, more of a 'personality,' like Severn Darden or Estelle Parsons," the film critic wrote. "He's very funny." Gould's career continued to prosper into the early '70s with the actor enjoying critical and commercial success with his role in Robert Altman's Academy Award-nominated Vietnam War satire "M*A*S*H."

And things did not slow down for Gould. He went from one hit to another on stage and screen throughout the '70s all the way through to present day. His long and varied filmography includes celebrated performances in "California Split," "The Long Goodbye," "Capricorn One," "Friends," "American History X," "Ocean's Eleven" (and, of course,  "Ocean's Twelve," "Ocean's Thirteen," and "Ocean's 8"), and "Ray Donovan." 

The actor formerly known as "Mr. Streisand" stepped out of the shadow of his ex-wife's larger-than-life legacy and went on to make quite an incredible career for himself. Or, as his biography on the TCM website put it, "As his marriage disintegrated, it seemed Gould's time had come, professionally."
