Quote
1 [on his roles] I’ve always been invited through the back door. It hasn’t been easy for me. I would never have gotten the jobs I did without the advent of cable television, which brought back the kinds of raw, authentic leading actors you had in the seventies: [Robert] Duvall, Ed Harris, Tommy Lee Jones.
2 [on his childhood] I was known as the kid who raised himself… my mother wanted to party and have a life. She was young. I grew up with people smoking dope on the porch. I’m not sad about it at all. And she’s really showed up since. But when I was young she didn’t do a lot, other than making sure I had clogging lessons.
3 I don’t take a scene or word for granted.
4 My heroes are Robert Duvall, Forest Whitaker, Ed Harris, Tommy Lee Jones, Anthony Hopkins and Sean Penn.
5 The life of a character doesn’t just exist between action and cut.
Fact
1 Has a son named Lawrence (born 2011).
2 Grew up in an 1850s Georgia farmhouse.
3 Born in Alabama but raised in Georgia.
4 He has had significant dental work done after his teeth were knocked out twice as a child, once while playing baseball and again in an accident on a diving board.
5 He initially turned down the role of Boyd Crowder on Justified (2010) because he was concerned it would be a negative stereotype of Southerners. He finally agreed to shoot the pilot, in which Boyd was originally killed. However, his character did so well with testing audiences that it was decided to reshoot the end of the pilot to allow Boyd to live and be a recurring character.
6 Father of Augustus, born 2011.
7 Good friends with his Justified (2010) co-star Timothy Olyphant.
8 Goggins was the object of Georgia General Assembly House Resolution 1589, which stated that the members of the Georgia House commended him on his distinguished acting career and on his Academy Award on behalf of the residents of Lithia Springs, Douglas County, and the state of Georgia.
9 Goggins appeared in an extended trailer (or abbreviated pilot) for a fourth season of the low-rated but critically-beloved TV show, Veronica Mars (2004). Instead of being a college undergraduate, as she was at the end of season three, in the spec season four, Veronica has graduated from college and the FBI Academy and is starting her first day as a FBI agent. The pitch contained a whole new cast of, heretofore unseen, characters and, except for Veronica herself, none of the characters from the show’s previous seasons. Goggins was cast as Veronica’s FBI supervisor. The CW failed to pick up this new version of Veronica Mars (2004) and the show was canceled.
10 Studied acting for 12 years under Harry Mastrogeorge and David Le Grand.
11 Co-owner of “Ginny Mule Pictures”, along with partner Ray McKinnon, a film and television production company.
12 Passionate about scuba diving.
13 His two favorite authors are W. Somerset Maugham and Hermann Hesse.
14 Is an avid photographer and traveler.
15 Supports environmental and humanitarian causes. Is an active member of Global Green USA.
