Tony Scott: Career
In terms of his career, Scott was hired by MGM Studios in 1982 to create The Hunger, a vampire film that starred David Bowie, Catherine Deneuve, and launched Willem Dafoe, but ultimately failed to gain traction.
As a result, he struggled to get work as a feature film director until producers Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson asked him to make Top Gun several years later.
Scott’s first box office success, propelled him ahead of his brother and established him as a Hollywood A-list action filmmaker.
In contrast, he worked again with Bruckheimer and Simpson in 1987, directing Beverly Hills Cop II, which starred Eddie Murphy and Brigitte Nielsen and was one of the year’s highest-grossing films.
Similarly, he went on to make box-office smashes throughout the 1990s and 2000s.
Meanwhile, Patricia Arquette, Dennis Hopper, Gary Oldman, Brad Pitt, Christian Slater, Christopher Walken, and Samuel L. Jackson were among the cast members.
As a result, his highest-grossing film of the ’90s was 1998’s Enemy of the State, starring Will Smith and Gene Hackman.
