Adolph Robert Thornton Jr. was born on July 27, 1985, in Chicago, Illinois.[5][6][7] When he was two years old, his family moved to Memphis, Tennessee.[7] He had two sisters and two brothers; he and rapper Juice Wrld were second cousins.[8][9] Thornton was mostly raised by his grandmother, Ida Mae; his parents experienced addictions to crack cocaine, and as a child, he would only see them every few weeks.[10][11]
Jackson played a minor role in the 1990 Martin Scorsese film Goodfellas, as real-life Mafia associate Stacks Edwards. Having overdosed on heroin several times, he switched to cocaine.[34] His family entered him into a New York rehabilitation clinic.[18][35] After he completed rehabilitation, he appeared in Jungle Fever as a crack cocaine addict. Jackson said that the role was cathartic,[13] commenting, "It was a funny kind of thing. By the time I was out of rehab, about a week or so later I was on set and we were ready to start shooting."[36] His performance was so acclaimed that the jury of 1991 Cannes Film Festival added a special "Supporting Actor" award just for him.[14][37] Following this role, Jackson became involved with the comedy Strictly Business and dramas Juice and Patriot Games. He then moved on to two other comedies: National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1 (his first starring role) and Amos & Andrew.[38][39] Jackson worked with the director Steven Spielberg in 1993's Jurassic Park.[40]
