American actor Michael Shannon became best known for his riveting performances in films like "The Shape of Water" (2017), "Take Shelter" (2011), "99 Homes" (2014), and "Revolutionary Road" (2008), the latter of which earned Shannon his first Oscar nod.

Michael Shannon has tied the knot with Kate Arrington, an American Actress. Kate and the Actor have been together for 15 years. Kate Arrington is notable for her work onstage and is a long-time member of The Steppenwolf Ensemble.

In 1993, at just the age of nineteen, Michael Shannon landed the minor part of Fred, where he would act along a major star named Bill Murray. The movie was Groundhog Day, and even though it was thirty years ago and Shannon has accomplished so much in his career since then, it's a part he still talks about today.

Shannon received two Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor nominations, for Revolutionary Road (2008), and Nocturnal Animals (2016). He received Screen Actors Guild Award and Golden Globe Award nominations for his role in 99 Homes (2014).
