Making his film debut in 1959, O'Toole achieved international recognition playing T. E. Lawrence in ''Lawrence of Arabia'' (1962) for which he received his first nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor. He was nominated for this award another seven times – for playing King Henry II in both ''Becket'' (1964) and ''The Lion in Winter'' (1968), ''Goodbye, Mr. Chips'' (1969), ''The Ruling Class'' (1972), ''The Stunt Man'' (1980), ''My Favorite Year'' (1982), and ''Venus'' (2006) – and holds the record for the most Oscar nominations for acting without a win (tied with Glenn Close). In 2002, he was awarded the Academy Honorary Award for his career achievements.
O'Toole was the recipient of four Golden Globe Awards, one BAFTA Award for Best British Actor and one Primetime Emmy Award. Other performances include ''What's New Pussycat?'' (1965), ''How to Steal a Million'' (1966), ''Supergirl'' (1984), and minor roles in ''The Last Emperor'' (1987) and ''Troy'' (2004). He also voiced Anton Ego, the restaurant critic in Pixar's ''Ratatouille'' (2007). Provided by Wikipedia
