Six Degrees of William Sadler

Does anyone know exactly how to play Six Degrees? Because I think it would be really fun here, especially since Bill has played in so many different roles.

Here are the rules I was able to find -- is this it? 'Cuz if is, I'm ready to rumble!

1 - Pick a film actor, any film actor.

2 - Link the actor you've chosen to Bill via the movies they've shared with other actors until you end up with William Sadler himself.

So, let's see if I can start this thing rolling -- anyone, link William Sadler to Kenneth Brannagh!

Oooh! Tough one! But --

Kevin Costner was in Waterworld with Dennis Hopper, who was in Speed with Keanu Reeves, who was in Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey with William Sadler!

Here's one -- Harold Pinter.

Man,I think THIS is a hard one....I can connect Pinter with James Marsters through Geoffrey Rush in The Tailor of Panama.......but a "Bill" connection...hmmm.....this'll take a bit of research.

Here's a clue -- it's 2 degrees, and the link is via one of Bill's lesser-known films.

Okay,I'm NOT giving up...but you are talking about a working actor with a 30 year career of films behind him...this could take awhile (glad it's only 2 degrees tho) .

Did you know that William Sadler has a one-degree link with Emma Thompson? They did a britcom together called Assaulted Nuts .

Meryl Streep, huh? Hmm ... gotta work on that one!

GOT IT!

Meryl Streep was in the remake of The Manchurian Candidate with Denzel Washington, who is currently starring on Broadway in Julius Caesar with -- you guessed it! -- William Sadler as Julius Caesar!

Let's go with one of Bill's fave actors -- Robert De Niro.

I didn't know that. Harold Pinter played Emma's father in Wit, so I started from there. And Emma was actually wasn't credited in My Father the Hero, but she was in it.

Robert DeNiro - Marvin's Room - Meryl Streep

Meryl Streep - The Manchurian Candidate - Denzel Washington

Denzel Washington - Julius Caesar - Bill Sadler

Since her board closed. Mandy Moore

Oooh! Oooh! I have a good one for this!

Mandy Moore was in the Princess Diaries, which also featured an uncredited voiceover by Rene Auberjonois as the Princess’s father in the letter that he left for her. And Rene Auberjonois was in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, in which William Sadler had a recurring role as Agent Sloan.

Let’s see ... Susan Sarandon?

Easy! She and Bill were in Freaked together.

We need something tougher -- how about Omar Sharif?
