Jeff Bridges has played many iconic characters throughout his long career, but he told Fox News Digital he is most often recognized for playing "The Dude" in "The Big Lebowski." Not only is his character popular, the movie is so beloved it even spawned a religion with loyal followers, known as Dudeism.
Bridges finds it amusing that when the movie was first released, it was not well received and took quite a while to gain traction.
Over time though, it really took off, inspiring festivals like Lebowski Fest. "When you get a great story, and you get a great director and a great cinematographer, the acting is decent, it all kind of comes together," he said. "That's one of the few films that I see on TV I say, I'll just watch a couple of scenes, and then I end up watching the whole damn thing." Jeff Bridges says "The Big Lebowski" is one of those films that when he catches it on TV, he always ends up watching.

Bridges said he was initially scared to sign on for a TV show, mostly because of the stigma once attached to television actors.
