Ron Howard is no doubt celebrating his brother’s 52nd birthday today.
Ron Howard’s brother has more than 200 film and television credits including roles in many of his brother’s films — Cocoon, Apollo 13, Cinderella Man and Frost/Nixon come to mind. Many will remember Ron Howard’s brother also as the 8-year-old kid in the TV series Gentle Ben. Howard’s younger sibling was also the voice of Roo in the Disney Winnie the Pooh films, and more recently the voice of the balloon man in Curious George.
I loved Ron Howard’s Brother in Groundhog Day.
Oh, wait. That was Bill Murray’s Brother.
Nevermind.
Perhaps, his best role was Balok on Star Trek.
What was the name of the drink he offered Kirk and company? Anybody?
Trania.
I though it was Tranya. 😛
