Elvis was told in a casting that he better continue with trucks. Stories of drivers who marked generations.
Actors and great musicians began their working lives in trucks and shared a generation with other drivers who had the luxury, for example, of meeting Elvis at a stop or with Sean Connery at the occasional meal. Stories of routes and glamour.
Sean Connery:
This great actor was one of the James Bonds most remembered by people. His fame did not come to him immediately and in Scotland, his native country, he was a milk deliveryman, then he worked as a lifeguard at a swimming pool and finally he was a truck driver.
Hudson Rock:
This film and television actor, specialized in the romantic genre, in the 50s and 60s began his career in the war as a truck driver. It was during World War II when his knowledge of aircraft mechanics led him to fight at the front of a wheel.
Charles Bronson:
A tough man of cinema who starred in great film productions such as “The Great Escape” and “The Dirty Dozen”. But his past was not easy either. As a young man he was recruited to be part of the military and assigned to the Air Corps in 1943. There he began his military career as a truck driver, but soon became an outstanding pilot.

Liam Neeson:
He takes this walk of fame to an immense film production that was not only a box office success, but also portrays one of the shocking stories that were experienced in the Holocaust. This is ‘Schindler’s List’.
This actor from Ireland was a truck driver and forklift operator as well as an amateur boxer and architect’s assistant.
Elvis Presley:
An iconic singer in the entire world and a legend. Elvis was everything an artist wants to achieve. He imposed his style, his clothing, transcended borders and his legacy lives on to this day. But before being a “King”, he was a truck driver at the “Crown Electric Company”. Records from that time show him with long hair in the style of drivers of the time.
An unforgettable anecdote, in an audition they recommended to the star that he “limit himself to driving a truck because he would never become a singer.”
