Malcolm McDowell mini-bio: Malcolm McDowell is an English actor. He was born Malcolm John Taylor in Leeds, West Yorkshire. Possibly best known for his portrayal of Alex DeLarge in A Cl flixster.actor.pane.162670305 - flixster

ockwork Orange (1971), he began serving drinks in his parents' pub and then as a coffee salesman. While enrolled in Cannock House School, he began taking acting classes, and eventually he secured work as an extra with the Royal Shakespeare Company.

McDowell made his screen debut in Poor Cow (1967) followed by The Raging Moon (1970), Figures in a Landscape (1970) and If... (1968). His performances caught the attention of Stanley Kubrick, who cast McDowell as the lead in A Clockwork Orange. Despite winning great acclaim (nominated for Best Actor by the New York Film Critics Circle) for his role as the leader of a gang of futuristic toughs, the role created a characterization so unforgettable that the public had a hard time separating actor from character. He rejoined Lindsay Anderson for the ambitious O Lucky Man! (1973) and Britannia Hospital (1982), and starred in Royal Flash (1975).

He is also well known in Star Trek circles as "the man who killed Captain Kirk" in the film Star Trek: Generations, in which he played the mad scientist Dr. Tolian Soran. Incidentally, McDowell is also the uncle of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine cast member Alexander Siddig. In 2005 McDowell played vicious agency owner Terence in the HBO Series Entourage.

And hes a gemini, AND he was Mr. Linderman in Heroes.

And if you haven't seen Gangster #1 you've missed a second treat. I'm just glad to see him garnering more roles outside of the villianous ones.
