Walk Of Fame Honour For Mission: Impossible Star

TV and movie veteran Peter Graves is to be honoured with the 2,391st star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The actor will unveil his star, a block away from where he once lived as a struggling actor, on 30 October.

As well as starring in the Mission: Impossible TV series, Graves also starred in the movies Stalag 17 and comedy Airplane.

Next year marks the 60th anniversary of his acting career.
He'll also be honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Ojai Film Festival next month.

Awesome!! I've only seen a few episodes of Mission: Impossible but he will always be Captain Oveur (Airplane!) to me. Way to go, Mr. Graves!!

Congratulations Mr. Graves! Your mission, should you chose to accept it, is to accept the adulation of your peers and your fans. This message will not self destruct in three minutes! And please stop calling me Shirley!

That's great news. Although I've never seen Mission Impossible, I do
remember him for his roles in the '50s TV series Fury (a western on
Saturday mornings on NBC) and his role as Reverend Camden's father on
7th Heaven. A superb actor.

I've never seen Mission Impossible but the episodes with Peter guest starring on 7th Heaven were great.

I loved this Airplane! reunion on Today that featured Peter Graves, Leslie Nielsen, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Jill Whelen (plus Robert Hays via satellite from LA).
