“unknown British Shakespearian actor…” Wow, I never thought I’d hear Patrick Stewart described that way.

I think he was just an extra in the movie Excalibur before TNG, outside of stage.

Edit: “”““extra””“” in extra quotes forgive me it’s been over a decade since I saw the movie.

How dare you disrespect Gurney Halleck like that?

His boss was a captain too

lol he wasn't an extra.. he had a hugely important role.. he was Guenevere's father for crying out loud, they fought a huge battle at his castle and everything.. he tries to draw the freaking sword itself!!

edit: i'm sorry i love that film a little too much

Anticorp ,

He was in the original Dune too.

Xbeam ,

The picture in the article is him as Gurney in Dune.

GreenMario ,

Oh shit you’re right. Never saw that one though.

You are missing out. I love that movie. People call it a train wreck and tbh it kinda of is, but for me, the lynch’s weirdness jibes perfectly with the world that Herbert eventually creates. Tonally it felt right.

He was great as Sejanus in I, Claudius.

AngrilyEatingMuffins ,

He was in I, Claudius. He’d been in stuff.

Pipoca ,

He wasn’t well- known, but had had a bunch of assorted roles on TV and movies.
