He married former waitress Alice Kim at the end of July 2004 in a private ceremony in northern California. Chakiris has also appeared on Broadway and television, and in the early 1960s embarked on a career as a pop singer which resulted in a couple of minor hit songs. They divorced in 2001. His biggest success came with the film West Side Story (1961), for which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. On April 8, 1995, he married actress Patricia Arquette. He was one of the dancers in Marilyn Monroe's "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" number in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) and also appeared as a dancer alongside Rosemary Clooney in White Christmas. He has a son, Weston Coppola Cage (born 1990), with model Kristina Fulton. Chakiris made his film debut in 1947 and for several years he appeared in small roles, usually as a dancer or a member of the chorus in various musical films.

He has developed a reputation for alternating roles in action movies with more serious character-driven dramas, and an occasional black comedy. George Chakiris (born September 16, 1934 in Norwood, Ohio) is a dancer and film actor. He won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in Leaving Las Vegas (1995). His next notable roles were in the 1983 movies Rumble Fish and Valley Girl, which was his breakout role. He had a small role in Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982), most of which ended on the cutting room floor.

He chose the name Cage after the Marvel comic book hero Luke Cage, Power Man. Cage changed his name early in order to try to make his own way in acting without benefiting from his uncle's reputation.
