Jason Sudeikis and George Wendt
Jason Sudeikis made a name for himself as part of the ensemble cast on SNL before transitioning into film - a move he seemingly borrowed from a famous relative. Sudeikis is the nephew of actor George Wendt, who played "Norm" on the '80s and '90s ensemble comedy Cheers.
Says Sudeikis about his uncle:
"He was just a good example that being an actor was a viable option...The advice he gave me, and I say this jokingly, is 'Get on one of the best sitcoms of all time and then ride it out.'"[Photo via]
