Perhaps no other actor has allowed such a storied collection of hairstyles to be applied to his scalp than Samuel L. Jackson. The "Jumper" actor has a history of scene-stealing do's, in "Pulp Fiction," "Unbreakable" and more. For the stories behind the styles, we sat down with Jackson and a series of character photos, and asked him to give us the inside scoop on his most famous coverings. Watch it below.
