Comment: Did some searching myself and the subject appears to be notable, with better sourcing available outside this draft. But it needs a rewrite. The tone is not quite encyclopedic and suffers from subtle WP:NPOV issues. Please see WP:BETTER. Resubmit once you've done some rewriting, and also note that IMDb is not a reliable source.
