Netflix Movies Starring Tom Wopat
He'll forever be remembered as strapping, good ol' boy Luke Duke, the virile, blue-eyed, dark-haired, plaid-shirted rascal (equally good-looking John Schneider was the strapping, plaid-shirted blond cousin) on the rough-and-tumble bucolic 80s series The Dukes of Hazzard (1979). Where others may have fallen by the TV wayside, however, after the cancellation of such a popular series, Wopat moved on and reverted back to his first true love - music - successfully refocusing as a recording artist and musical leading man of Broadway and regional shows. The highly engaging Wisconsin native was born Thomas Steven Wopat in 1951, in Lodi, WI, the son of Ruth Arlene (Skarda) and Albin Carl Wopat, a dairy farmer. He is one of six brothers and sisters. His father and maternal grandfather were of Czech descent. Tom began singing and dancing in school musicals from age 12 and, following high school graduation, decided to avidly pursue music as a viable profession. Read more on iMDB
