George Kotsonaros (Шаблон:Lang-el; October 16, 1892 in Nafplio, Greece – July 13, 1933 in Eutaw, Alabama) was a Greek-born professional wrestler and film actor. He acted mostly in silent pictures. His original name was Giorgios Demetrios Kotsonaros. He emigrated to the United States in July 1910.
His swarthy, menacing face—and pugilist's rearranged nose—got him many roles as a tough guy or a prizefighter at a time when boxing movies were a flourishing subgenre due to the sport's huge popularity with the public.
Most of Kotsonaros's films are today considered lost. Later, Kotsonaros began a career in professional wrestling.Шаблон:Cn
On July 13, 1933, Kotsonaros was driving through Alabama when his car overturned, killing him.[1]
