WHET Ed Burns?

He was considered a Hollywood leading man for a while after the success of "The Brothers McMullan," but then he disappeared. According to imdb he is still acting, but I've not heard of any of his projects for years and years. He's still handsome.

He was really hot. I think he also ended up marrying Roller Girl.

He’s married to Christy Turlington . He’s was so bland and had a weird speaking voice.

by Anonymousreply 2September 5, 2022 11:54 PM

I think he's mostly writing and producing now.

Isn’t he part of the new series Bridge & Tunnel

by Anonymousreply 4September 5, 2022 11:56 PM

No, Ed is not married to 'Roller Girl', Heather Graham, he married former super model Christy Turlington in 2003. They have two children, Grace & Finn. They've managed to keep their kids out of the media.

The Burns family live in the late JFK Jr's Soho loft. It's kind of creepy Ed sought out that specific loft to purchase.

I find him smug with an inflated sense of self. This is surprising since he's from Long Island.

by Anonymousreply 6September 5, 2022 11:59 PM

He seems to direct/produce very minor inexpensive work which consistently flies under the radar.

His series Bridge & Tunnel was on fucking Starz which nobody has, or may even know they have. I saw some parts of it and it was good, but not renewed. Nobody knew it was there.

As an actor he washed out. He's not that good and his voice didn't help.

Current photo of the Burns family. Their daughter is pretty enough to follow in her's mom's modeling footsteps.

IIRC, Christy's mom is from El Salavador. Her dad was an American Wasp.

Most of his movies flopped but he had a distinct vision and I liked his work…

I have a secret lust for Long Guy Land Irish. Good work ethic. Nice ass.

The same can be said of many excellent series on Starz. Idris Elba's comedy series ran for three seasons on Starz, as did the excellent thriller series, The Missing. The Girlfriend Experience and American Gods were also on Starz.

There are still many excellent TV shows on cable, premium cable and regular cable,, however, way too many viewers are either obsessed with streaming or buy into the hype that streaming has better shows. Or they are basically stupid enough to subscribe streaming services while paying for cable.

Most people don't have enough time to watch both cable and streaming TV shows and films, they must enjoy wasting money.

Hairpiece magic for Ed.

by Anonymousreply 12September 6, 2022 12:24 AM

I don't think he was ever very successful. Turlington seemed like the main breadwinner in that family.

by Anonymousreply 13September 6, 2022 12:24 AM

He could play Bryan Cranston's son in some project. His career is has no issues.

by Anonymousreply 14September 6, 2022 12:30 AM

He was supposedly very difficult on the set.

by Anonymousreply 15September 6, 2022 12:36 AM

He's living off Turlington's savings, and why not.

Opinionated Eldergays.

SMH

Starz has had a streaming app since 2016, R11

It's just never gotten the buzz that HBO and Showtime generated, let alone Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, et al

Hadn’t thought of this dude in years and just last night I saw a pic of he and Turlington in the new Vanity Fair. She looked…different.

by Anonymousreply 18September 6, 2022 12:46 AM

Burns and Turlington are both super-religious, so it's probably a good match.

Her sister is also married to his brother.

by Anonymousreply 19September 6, 2022 12:46 AM

The photo said it all..very smug look.

by Anonymousreply 20September 6, 2022 12:47 AM

Oh wow, I never knew her sister was married to his brother.

by Anonymousreply 21September 6, 2022 12:54 AM

Here's a pic from 2014.

Ed's brother Brian is supposedly a producer. He lives in Tribeca with his wife Kelly Turlington. Not sure what she does now, but she owned a travel agency.

Brian is Kelly's second husband. Kelly's son James, from her first marriage, is a model.

James looks more like his aunt Christy than his mom. He has the same wonky eye thing going on too!

R22 Brian Burns is a producer of the show Blue Bloods, which has been on forever.

by Anonymousreply 24September 6, 2022 10:30 AM

This thread led me down the rabbit hole..Ed joined his wife in an Eternity commercial...so cringe-filled. On a beach, of course, meaningful looks and gestures...etc. He lost any cool factor to me now.

Is he related to Pete Burns?

I really hope Christy doesn't let her children model the way Cindy Crawford did. Turlington seemed to see the limitations of modelling so I would hope she would stear her kids away.

by Anonymousreply 30September 6, 2022 10:40 PM

Turlington went to college and graduate school, so hopefully she will encourage her children to do the same.

It is weird how the nephew looks exactly like her.

by Anonymousreply 31September 6, 2022 10:46 PM

Genetics are bizarre! Christy’s nephew is her twin yet his mom Kelly looks nothing like Christy.

I'd never heard that Turlington and Burns are religious. Odd in their social circles.

Ed Burns was hot. But he only showed his body in one movie where he was shirtless for like 1 minute in darkness but he had abs.

I always wanted to see his dick; wonder if he's uncut since he's irish.

by Anonymousreply 35September 7, 2022 12:33 AM

James the model is giving off extreme they/them vibes.

by Anonymousreply 36September 7, 2022 12:40 AM

He’s got one eye looking at me and the other one looking for me.

R31, you triggered a memory. I remember riding in a crowded elevator with her at NYU.

I don’t think the nephew is attractive at all. Neither is her son really.

by Anonymousreply 38September 7, 2022 1:37 AM

R34 From what I've heard Christy grew up sorta generically Catholic where it's more of a cultural thing than a religious one, then started attending mass regularly as an adult when she enrolled at NYU and was living in NYC full-time.
