Mickey Rooney Biography, Age, Weight, Height, Friend, Like, Affairs, Favourite, Birthdate & Other

Mickey Rooney is the second longest serving actor in the history of cinema and is also among the most prolific ones. His tryst with acting started when he was just seventeen months old and appeared on stage with his parents. Encouraged by his mother, he managed to bag his first movie role at the age of six and started featuring regularly in films.

He bagged a major contract with MGM in his early teens and soon achieved stardom with comic roles in numerous movies and musicals, becoming the undisputed box-office king. His acting career was interrupted by a stint in the war, where too he showed his comic abilities off the camera and entertained the troops. But his magic somehow disappeared after the war and his films did not reach the heights of his earlier ones.

But he did not relent and took his talent to TV and stage, attaining a modicum of success there. In spite of not being the same force as he once was, he carried on acting with the same zeal and energy throughout his life and intermittently produced great performances, like in the film The Black Stallion. His personal life wasn’t short of action either and he married eight times. His longevity and endurance certainly suggests that Mickey Rooney was born to act and entertain.
