Jeremy Black

Biography

He was born in Connecticut. Son of a Broadway director/writer/producer. One great film alone and one brilliant performance was enough to put Jeremy Black on the map for the delight of film-buffs around the globe, even though a part of us wanted to see more of him in the years to come. But Black loves the theatre and might not be that interesting in returning to Hollywood. Boyish, handsome, expressive yet frightening, somewhat menacing (one of those unforgettable faces) ...the duality of roles he displayed in the hit The Boys from Brazil (1978) could secure him a solid career in film business - either for similar roles in thrillers or horrors but other genres as well. He was unforgettable as the Hitler clones who was smart and mean enough to give a hard time to Laurence Oliver and Gregory Peck in Franklin J. Schaffner's solid thriller. Despite the film success, he simply vanished from view. Decided to move to New York to work in stage plays. We hope he'll return to the big screen someday.
