Terence Stamp, British actor who portrayed General Zod in early Superman films, dies at 87
LONDON — Terence Stamp, the British actor who often played the role of a complex villain, including that of General Zod in the early Superman films, has died. He was 87. His death on Sunday was disclosed in a death notice published online. The London-born Stamp started his film career with 1962's seafaring 'Billy Budd,' for which he earned an Oscar nomination. Stamp's six decades in the business were peppered with highlights, including his touching portrayal of the transsexual Bernadette in 1994's 'The Adventure of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.' Stamp also was widely praised for his lead in director Steven Soderbergh's 1999 crime drama 'The Limey.' But it will be his portrayal of the bearded Zod in 1978's 'Superman' and its sequel 'Superman II' two years later that most people associate with Stamp. As the Kryptonian arch enemy to Christopher Reeve's Man of Steel, Stamp introduced a darker and charming — more human — element to the franchise, one that's been replicated in countless superhero movies ever since. Stamp started out his film career in the early 1960s as part of the 'angry young men' movement that was introducing an element of social realism into British moviemaking. That was perhaps most notable in the 1965 adaptation of John Fowles' creepy debut novel 'The Collector,' where he played the awkward and lonely Freddie Clegg, who kidnapped Samantha Eggar's Miranda Grey in a warped attempt to win her love. It was a performance that would earn the young Stamp, fresh off his Oscar nomination, the best actor award at 1965's Cannes Film Festival. While part of that 1960s British movement, Stamp learned from some of the most seasoned actors from the classical era, including Laurence Olivier. 'I worked with Olivier briefly on my second movie (1962's 'Term of Trial),' Stamp recalled in an interview with the AP in 2013. 'And he said to me, 'You should always study your voice.'' Stamp then segued into a spot-on Olivier impersonation, continuing, ''Because, as you get older, your looks go, but your voice will become empowered.'' Born in London's East End on July 22, 1938, Stamp lived a colorful life, particularly during the 1960s when he had a string of romances, including with actress Julie Christie and model Jean Shrimpton. He married 29-year-old Elizabeth O'Rourke in 2002 at the age of 64 but the couple divorced six years later. Stamp did not have any children. Stamp retained his looks as the years ticked by, his natural handsomeness hardened by a more grizzled look. He generally sought to keep his standards high, but up to a point. 'I don't do crappy movies, unless I haven't got the rent,' he said.

Terence Stamp, English actor known for ‘Superman' and ‘The Limey,' dies at 87
Terence Stamp, who famously played the arch-villain General Zod in the first two 'Superman' films, died Sunday at the age of 87. His death was confirmed by a representative, after his family released a statement. Stamp, was an acclaimed English leading man turned character actor, whose intense, sky-blue gaze sizzled on the silver screen for decades. His performance in the 1962 film 'Billy Budd,' based on the Herman Melville novel 'Moby Dick,' earned him an Oscar nomination and a Golden Globe for 'Best Newcomer.' Just 24 when the film was released, Stamp managed to stand out in a year that saw an uncanny number of cinema classics released, including 'Lawrence of Arabia,' 'The Manchurian Candidate' and 'Cape Fear.' The son of a tugboat stoker, Stamp emerged as one of the defining stars of British cinema throughout the 1960s, known as much for his offscreen romances with actress Julie Christie and Englishsupermodel Jean Shrimpton as he was for his brilliant, leading roles. But for international audiences, the ultimate Stamp villain was the ultra-ambitious alien General Zod in 'Superman' (1978). Stamp said he accepted the part because he wanted to work opposite Marlon Brando. Before then, he had stepped away from acting to become a swami in India. 'When the 1960s ended, I just ended with it,' Stamp told the Guardian in 2015 about his pre- 'Superman' acting drought. 'I remember my agent telling me: 'They're all looking for a young Terence Stamp.'' The first Superman film was something of a rebirth for the actor, who had become used to being a leading man. 'I just decided I was a character actor now and I can do anything,' he said. Stamp would reprise his turn as General Zod in 1980, for 'Superman II.' For the next 40 years, Stamp and his 'unsettlingly intense stare' appeared on film. In 1994′s 'The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert,' he played a middle-aged transgender woman named Bernadette. The movie drew mixed reviews at the time, but Stamp was widely considered the film's 'chief asset.' Stamp also starred in Steven Soderbergh's 'The Limey' alongside Peter Fonda. 'Terence Stamp builds up such a head of angry steam … it's a wonder the theater ceiling doesn't blister,' a Washington Post review declared in 1999. More recently, Stamp appeared in the 2021 Edgar Wright-directed horror thriller 'Last Night in Soho' — fittingly, an homage to 1960s London.
