This is a complete filmography of Jeff Bridges. Apart from an uncredited appearance as an infant in 1951, Bridges made his cinematic debut in 1970 beginning with the film Halls of Anger. His breakthrough came the following year with The Last Picture Show (1971), for which he was nominated for his first Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. After appearing in several 1972 films such as Fat City and Bad Company; and 1973 films such as The Iceman Cometh, he earned a second Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974).

Bridges appeared in films with varied degrees of success throughout the rest of the decade, including Hearts of the West (1975), Stay Hungry (1976), the remake of King Kong (also 1976), and Winter Kills (1979). He also starred in the notoriously over-budget flop Heaven's Gate (1980). However, he followed that with Cutter's Way (1981), Tron (1982), and Starman (1984)—for which he received his third, and this time leading, Academy Award for Best Actor nomination.
He remained a versatile actor, starring in a variety of genres. Succeeding films included Jagged Edge (1985), The Morning After (1986), Tucker: The Man and His Dream (1988); The Fabulous Baker Boys (1989), co-starring his brother Beau Bridges; The Fisher King (1991), American Heart (1993), Fearless (also 1993), The Mirror Has Two Faces (1996); and The Big Lebowski (1998), as "The Dude". He then earned a fourth Oscar nomination, as supporting actor, for The Contender (2000).
The new millennium brought Bridges roles in such films as K-PAX (2001), Seabiscuit (2003), The Door in the Floor (2004); a voice role in Surf's Up (2007); and Iron Man (2008). But it was his role in Crazy Heart (2009) that brought Bridges his fifth Academy Award nomination and first win to date (as Best Actor). He received a sixth, and consecutive, nomination the following year for the remake of True Grit (2010), portraying Rooster Cogburn (which won John Wayne an Oscar for the 1969 original film).
Bridges began to slow his output down in the 2010s, but still featured in several notable films such as The Giver (2014) and Hell or High Water (2016)—the latter of which earned him his seventh Oscar nomination, for supporting. Other films this decade include Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017) and Bad Times at the El Royale (2018). Most recently, he has starred in the FX/Hulu drama series The Old Man (2022–2024).
