Kurt McKinney Biography

Kurt McKinney is one of the most popular and richest Movie Actor who was born on February 15, 1962 in Louisville, Kentucky, United States. He rose to fame shortly after starring as Jason Stillwell in the 1986 action film, No Retreat, No Surrender. His other films include Savage Faith, Pop, Sworn to Justice, and Carnival Knowledge.

He played Ellis in 14 episodes of As the World Turns with actress Ellen Dolan.

McKinney moved to Hollywood in the mid-1980s and found fame within few months. He auditioned for the lead in American Ninja (1985) but was turned down due to his youth. Instead his film debut would come playing Jason Stillwell in 1986 martial arts film No Retreat, No Surrender, which also starred Jean-Claude Van Damme, J.W. Fails and Tai Chung Kim. The movie grossed $5 million at the US box office (and spawned two sequels). Although this success was moderate compared to similar movies of the time, such as the Rocky series or The Karate Kid series, or even The Last Dragon, it remains a cult classic film to many people around the world. 1987’s No Retreat, No Surrender 2 was originally intended to be a direct sequel to this film, but safety concerns over filming in Cambodian jungles persuaded Van Damme to back out of the project, and he convinced McKinney to do the same.

Early in his career, McKinney had guest starring roles on series such as Gimme a Break! (1985–86), Highway to Heaven (1987) and ALF (1986). He reportedly turned down the chance to star in American Ninja 3: Blood Hunt, and instead accepted his first contract role in a TV series. He appeared as the first Ned Ashton on the ABC soap opera General Hospital, from 1988 to 1991. In 1990, he won the Soap Opera Digest Award for “Outstanding Male Newcomer: Daytime” for his performance.

He married Maronda and they had two children named Cole and Madison Taylor Madsen.
