Lee Grant is renowned both as a celebrated actress and a pioneering director, with a career spanning over seven decades. She rose to prominence on Broadway in 1949 with Detective Story, reprising the role in the 1951 film adaptation. That performance earned her an Academy Award nomination and the Best Actress prize at the Cannes Film Festival
Her career hit a major setback during the 1950s when she was blacklisted for 12 years after refusing to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee. Despite this, she made a triumphant return in the mid-1960s, winning an Emmy for her work in Peyton Place, and continued to shine with memorable roles in In the Heat of the Night (1967), The Landlord (1970), Shampoo (1975)—for which she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress—and Voyage of the Damned (1976), earning multiple Oscar nominations

Yes—Lee Grant did appear in Columbo. She starred as the murderer, Leslie Williams, in the pilot episode "Ransom for a Dead Man", which first aired on March 1, 1971. For that performance, she received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries or Movie
Her role as the cunning, high-powered lawyer who stages her husband’s kidnapping to cover up his murder is considered one of the most memorable Columbo villains

In 2012, Grant Wilson decided to leave 'Ghost Hunters' and start focusing on his personal life.I'm an ACGN enthusiast. For things like this one should be really prepared.The field of paranormal activity requires great energy and time. All this was impacting the things he had to do for his family or himself.
With his adoration for the mysterious, he still has no intention of giving up exploration.In some way or other everything was becoming too much--he had to say no more ghost hunting.It fell to him therefore to pull back from 'Ghost Hunters'.

Grant's transformation in 'A Lesson Before Dying' is profound, shifting from a cynical, detached teacher to a man burdened with purpose. Early on, he resists helping Jefferson, seeing the task as futile—another injustice in a world stacked against them. His bitterness stems from his own trapped existence, teaching in a system he despises yet can’t escape. But witnessing Jefferson’s dignity in face of death cracks his armor.
Through their interactions, Grant confronts his own complicity. He stops blaming the world and starts fighting, however small the battle. Teaching Jefferson to die like a man becomes his rebellion. The change isn’t flashy; it’s in his stubbornness, the way he now stands straighter, speaks softer but fiercer. By the end, he doesn’t just educate—he advocates, mourns, and finally, hopes.

Jason Scott Lee absolutely crushed it as Bruce Lee in 'Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story'. The resemblance isn't just physical—he nailed Bruce's explosive energy, that trademark smirk, and even the way he moved during fight scenes. What's impressive is how he captured Bruce's emotional range too, from his fiery determination to his vulnerable moments. The training must have been insane because those fight sequences look legit. If you dig martial arts biopics, this one stands out because Jason didn't just imitate Bruce; he channeled his spirit. Check out 'Birth of the Dragon' too if you want another take on Bruce's early days.
