Thomas William Selleck is an American actor and film producer, known for his starring role as Hawaii-based private investigator "Thomas Magnum" on the 1980s television series, Magnum, P.I. (1980).

Selleck was born in Detroit, Michigan, to Martha S. (Jagger), a homemaker, and Robert Dean Selleck, a real estate investor and executive. He is of mostly English descent, including recent immigrant ancestors.

Selleck has appeared extensively on television in roles such as "Dr. Richard Burke" on 老友记 (1994) and "A.J. Cooper" on Las Vegas (2003). In addition to his series work, Selleck has appeared in more than fifty made-for-TV and general release movies, including 棒球先生 (1992), 捍卫游侠 (1990), Lassiter (1984) and, his most successful movie release, 三个奶爸一个娃 (1987), which was the highest grossing movie in 1987.

Selleck also plays "Jesse Stone" in a series of made-for-TV movies, based on the 罗伯特 novels. In 2010, he appears as "Commissioner Frank Reagan" in the drama series, Blue Bloods (2010) on CBS.

Turned down the role of Richard on the TV show Titans (2000).

Received an honorary doctorate from Pepperdine University. He was chosen because of his outstanding character and ethic. He is a board member of the non-profit Michael Josephson Institute of Ethics and co-founder of the Character Counts Coalition.

Was a member of the California National Guard and was activated for the Watts riots.

Was turned down for the lead role in the TV show Vega$ (1978), which went to 罗伯特·乌立希. Selleck and Urich once co-starred in a TV pilot (that was never picked up) called Bunco (1977).

Used to be part owner of The Black Orchid restaurant with 拉里·马内蒂 and one other investor in Honolulu, HI.

Studied acting at The Beverly Hills Playhouse with 麦尔顿·卡特赛拉斯.

Selleck was originally cast as "Indiana Jones", but was not able to take the role because he was committed to Magnum, P.I. (1980). "Magnum" did an episode, Magnum, P.I.: Legend of the Lost Art (1988), that parodied "Raiders", complete with hat, whip and booby traps.

Is a member of the National Rifle Association and memorably sparred with 罗茜·欧唐内 on 罗茜·奥唐纳秀 (1996) about gun control and an advertisement in which he appeared supporting the NRA.

Member of the Sigma Chi Fraternity.

First TV appearance was as a college senior on 约会游戏 (1965) in 1967 and then a second time (date unknown at this time). Incredibly, he lost both times. Soon after, he appeared in TV commercials for products such as Pepsi-Cola.

Starred in six failed TV pilots before landing his breakthrough role in Magnum, P.I. (1980).

Parents: Robert & Martha Selleck. His father was manager of the San Fernando Valley office of a prestigious commercial real estate company.

Shaved off his trademark moustache for the 1997 film 新郎向后跑 (1997). Once rarely seen without it, he has since kept it off for most of his stage and screen work.

While preparing for 棒球先生 (1992), he joined the Detroit Tigers in 1992 for spring training. He actually took an at-bat (as a pinch hitter) in a game against the Cincinnati Reds, facing Reds' pitcher Tim Layana. Selleck ended up striking out after fouling away half a dozen pitches.

During the brief run of the late night The Chevy Chase Show (1993) on Fox, he guest-starred and, as a gag, asked to be presented his 1993 Worst Supporting Actor "Razzie" award for his performance as "King Ferdinand of Spain" in 征服四海 (1992). When the Razzie was actually presented to him on the air, Selleck took it in stride and asked the entire studio audience to "blow me a raspberry". Selleck thus became the third person in Razzie history to voluntarily accept one of the Worst Achievements in Film statuettes.

In 2001, he appeared in the Broadway show "A Thousand Clowns" without a mustache, a rarity for Selleck. Unfortunately, the show was forced to close early due to 9/11.

The decision of choosing the leading role of Indiana Jones in 夺宝奇兵 (1981) or Magnum, P.I. (1980) actually haunted Selleck so much that he consulted his best friend. Together they came to the conclusion that honoring his contract with Magnum, P.I. (1980) was the honorable thing to do. It turned out that the shooting of the pilot for Magnum, P.I. (1980) was delayed for over 6 months, which would have enabled Selleck to complete the role of Indiana Jones. Ironically, while waiting in Hawaii for Magnum, P.I. (1980) to commence filming, 史蒂文·斯皮尔伯格 and 乔治·卢卡斯 were also in Hawaii to shoot scenes for 夺宝奇兵 (1981).

Was asked to star opposite 朱莉·安德鲁斯 in 雌雄莫辨 (1982) but hesitated, and by the time he decided he wanted the part, he was already locked into his Magnum, P.I. (1980) contract - the very same contract that cost him the role of Indiana Jones in 夺宝奇兵 (1981).

For the 8th and final season of Magnum, P.I. (1980), Universal Studios gave him a bonus of $350,000, which he spent on lavish gifts, such as Rolex watches, Porsches, $1000 bonuses, for the entire cast and crew of Magnum, P.I. (1980).

Vocally supported President 罗纳德·里根 throughout the 1980s. In Blue Bloods (2010), his character, "Commissioner Frank Reagan", has political ties.

Was considered as the next President of the National Rifle Association (NRA) following the retirement of his close friend 查尔顿·赫斯顿 in 2003.

In the early Nineties Selleck shot a commercial for the conservative National Review. But in 1992 he made a $1,000 donation to the presidential bid of Democratic Senator Paul Tsongas. Five years later, New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd reported that Republicans were urging Selleck to run for the Senate in California - a story Selleck quickly shot down. His political profile has been low ever since. However, in 1999 he filmed an advertisement for the National Rifle Association. "He's not a Republican," says an actor who knows him. "He's an independent.".

Played competitive volleyball with the Outrigger Canoe Club and was a three-time All American selection, twice winning the over-35 division in the National Championships.

Another rare appearance without his trademark mustache was on Charlie's Angels: Target: Angels (1976), original air date 27 October 1976.

George Lucas, having worked on a number of films with Harrison Ford wanted a different actor for Indiana Jones and had picked Tom Selleck but he was already scheduled for Magnum P.I. and CBS wouldn't agree to delay filming so Tom lost out and although becoming a star with the series he never achieved big screen stardom.
