London-born Stamp began his career on the British stage before he was heavily praised for his first screen role in Peter Ustinov’s 1962 historic drama Billy Bad. Stamp won the Golden Globe of New Star of the Year for his performance and was nominated for Best Supporting Actor and BAFTA for the Oscar.

Throughout the 1960s, he built a reputation as one of the most distinctive and talented performers in British cinemas. He starred on the other side of Julie Christie in John Schlesinger’s 1967 adaptation of Thomas Hardy Not far from the crazy crowdLED movies containing Ken Loach’s socially realistic drama Poor thing Pier Paolo Pasolini’s 1968 theorem.

The stamp was also associated with the 10-year swing London scene, including Christie’s famous relationship with supermodel Jan Shrimpton.

In 1978, wider fame was engraved through his role as Zod, the leader of Crypton’s criminals. The stamp recreates the role of the 1980s Superman II.

Stamps continued to operate in the Millennium from the 90s, with credits including 1999 throughout the 90s Star Wars: Episode I – Phantom MenaceChristopher McCurley Valkyrie Tom Cruise and George Norphye 2011 Coordination Bureau. His final film role reminded me of his start in the 1960s as Edgar Wright’s 2021 silver-haired gentleman Last night in Soho.
