BEVERLY HILLS,南昌宫颈糜烂, CA.- Actor Larry Hagman is set to appear in a TV remake of a different kind when his personal antiques, fine and decorative art, furniture, and memorabilia from the classic 1980’s primetime soap opera Dallas are offered for auction in a sale to be held at the prestigious Julien’s Auctions ############## in Beverly Hills, California on Saturday, June 4, 2011.
Larry Hagman, stage, film and television actor, producer, director, and charitable spokesman, is best known for his roles as the villainous JR Ewing in Dallas and Major Tony Nelson in I Dream of Jeannie. In 1965 Hagman hit the jackpot playing Barbara Eden’s TV “master” and eventual love interest, Captain Anthony Nelson in the hit sitcom I Dream of Jeannie for NBC.

By 1970 Hagman’s character had finally married Jeannie during its last season.
In mid-1978 Hagman was cast as the conniving elder son and businessman J.R. Ewing, a man whom everybody loved to hate in the classic, now legendary show Dallas. Hagman joined a cast of relatively unknown actors at the time and instantly created what was to become a legendary part that insured a ratings bonanza. By the end of only the second season Dallas was a bonafide mega-hit and the show aired for thirteen seasons ending in 1991.
