The Life of Chuck (Norris)

March 23, 2026Chris Klimek

The latest target to get its ass roundly kicked by Chuck Norris, despite / because of the fact he passed away last week? My weekend. I did some light Chuckery for The Atlantic, a marvelous publication that hadn’t published me in a little more than a decade.

Someday I’ll find a home for the piece this one kept trying to turn into, about how director Andrew Davis made three Chicago-based action movies in eight years, starring, in order, Norris, Steven Seagal, and Harrison Ford — and a remarkable number of the same, Chicago-based supporting players.

What's in an Acro-Name? The Weirdly-Punctuated History of S.P.E.C.T.R.E.

November 06, 2015Chris Klimek

I went D.E.E.P. on the H.I.S.T.O.R.Y. of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. for this Atlantic essay chronicling the tortured-acronym-loving cabal's bizarre contributions to the James Bond literary and film franchises. Anyone with enough interest in the Bond flicks to stick with this thing for nine paragraphs won't be surprised by the SPECTRE spoiler found therein, but consider yourself duly warned.
