Tony Sirico (The Sopranos), James Woods, Sam Elliott, Will Smith (not sure how he stands about the rest of us).
Steven Spielberg is a big gun collector but contributes to every gun control group and candidate there is, so merely liking guns does not equate to being our ally.

Anyone notice...
...few of the people mentioned are younger stars? They're mostly people who have been around a while.

Alice Cooper
Ted Nugent
Damian Marley
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Karl Malone
Howard Stern
Val Kilmer
Milla Jovovich
Bruce Willis
Jonathan Davis (singer of the band 'KoRn')
Brock Lesnar

I would imagine you'd find more famous musicians (especialy of the country genre) who are pro gun than famous actors.
I believe you're mistaken.

Gary Graham. Not exactly a movie star but a long time TV actor. He played Ambassador Soval on Enterprise and was the star of a show called Alien Nation.
He does a promotional video for Front Sight.

I'm pretty sure there are alot of people in music, TV, and hollywood who own guns that are young and old that no one would suspect. However, figuring out which ones are RKBA and those who like 'sensible (elitist) gun laws' is different. I'm guessing alot of them are along the lines of hunters or pro-self defense, but don't think people should just own guns for fun or have military-types. You know, because people don't NEED them. But I guess they need their huge houses, gas-guzzling SUVs, millions of dollars, an--rant alert-- okay, I'll stop.

Geoffrey Lewis - among the last of the old-school character actors, whose face you'll recognize more readily than his name. Perhaps better-known as Juliette Lewis' father. Co-stars in the instructional video, A Woman's Guide to Firearms, alongside Lee Purcell and Gerald McRaney.
From IMDB(http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0507212/bio): "He is a firearms enthusiast who reloads his own ammunition and owns a custom-built Terry Tussey 1911 .45."
Also see his co-stars from the TNT made-for-cable epic, The Rough Riders, Tom Berenger and Brad Johnson, as well as uber-Hollywood gun-guy, producer/director/writer John Milius.
Milius' fellow Tinseltown gun-ster, John Fasano, writes the "Bad Hollywood" column for Harris Outdoor Group's Tactical Weapons magazine, which this month spotlights celebrities with real-life, current LEO credentials, like Shaquille O'Neal and Lou Ferrigno.
James Caan actually trained at Gunsite under Jeff Cooper and (possibly) Chuck Taylor for the Michael Mann movie, Thief - IIRC at the time he was rather dismissive of the experience, but on the DVD commentary track he and director Mann spoke very highly of his training in retrospect. Supposedly Caan is also the second-highest-ranked black belt in the U.S. in a certain school of karate, whose name escapes me at the moment...

found a few more:
Conan O'Brien (finding this a bit hard to believe)
Kurt Russell
All members of Metallica
two other members of KoRn
rapper Jay-Z (and god knows how many others)
Axle Rose
there are too many to probably list, and they are all gonna be hard to find. I'd bet you that there are probably more pro-gunner celebs than anti-gunners, but they keep their mouths shut so they can get by without getting haggled.

I think that would be an awesome day at the range! From what I hear, these are two very polite and down-to-earth stars. Both very funny, as well (except for that stupid "Punk'd" show...)
The name sounded familiar, but yeah - I drew a blank too.
I don't watch Desperate Housewives, never have, never will. I don't think I've seen a single movie she was in either. How I even recognize the name, I'm not sure.
I watch mostly DVDs, or the History Channel. That's about it.
Fred Thompson isn't all that much of a movie star, although I just realized that he must have worked with and probably knows my cousin from Wiseguys. I'll have to ask at Thanksgiving this year.
What about Chuck Norris?

I've actually stopped thinking of him as a movie star and now think of him only in the political context.

Lou Ferrigno is a very pro-gun. His favorite is the .50 Barrett and the
.416 Barrett. Very fitting for the Incredible Hulk.

45guy beat me to Ferrigno.
I loved the caption when Ferrigno met Rob Leatham...
The Incredible Hulk meets Superman!
