Born to actress Stella Stevens, Andrew Stevens got an early start in Hollywood, making his debut in the beloved film The Courtship of Eddie’s Father. But don’t be mistaken—while he had a famous mom, Andrew Stevens quickly proved he could stand on his own two feet. Over time, he took on more prominent roles, stepping into the spotlight with performances in TV series like The Oregon Trail and Dallas, as well as notable films such as The Fury, Massacre at Central High, and The Boys in Company C. It was actually for this last film that Andrew Stevens earned a Golden Globe nomination, marking a major milestone in his acting journey.

As his career evolved, so did his ambitions. Andrew Stevens began exploring behind-the-camera roles, diving into writing and directing with a string of low-budget but impactful films, including The Terror Within II, Night Eyes Three, and Breaking the Press. These projects helped shape his growing reputation not just as a performer, but as a creative force in his own right. Eventually, Andrew Stevens shifted gears again, focusing more heavily on production. He took the helm as President and CEO of Franchise Pictures, where he produced several films for Warner Bros., showcasing his knack for bringing compelling stories to the big screen.

When that chapter came to a close, Andrew Stevens didn’t slow down—he launched his own company, aptly named Andrew Stevens Entertainment, further cementing his legacy in the industry. To date, Andrew Stevens has produced over 100 films, which is no small feat. And while many of these were independently funded or lower-budget ventures, a significant number still managed to secure wide theatrical releases through major studios. Just take a look at some of the standout titles: The Big Kahuna, featuring Kevin Spacey and Danny DeVito; 3000 Miles to Graceland, starring Kurt Russell and Kevin Costner; and Heist, with Gene Hackman in the lead. Each of these films highlights the kind of high-caliber work that Andrew Stevens has consistently been involved in.

Throughout it all, Andrew Stevens has remained a versatile and resilient figure in Hollywood—one who’s navigated the ups and downs of the business with grit and determination. Whether in front of the camera or behind it, Andrew Stevens continues to leave his mark on the entertainment world.

While there are various films in his filmography, these two titles—Animal Factory and A Murder of Crows—represent the high and low points in terms of how audiences and critics have responded to his performances.
