Rupert Crosse
Rupert Crosse was an African-American actor. In 1969, Crosse was the first African American to receive a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Crosse was born in New York City, but was raised on the island of Nevis by his grandparents. Nevis is one of the Leeward Islands of the Caribbean Sea. It was a British colony until 1967, when it became one of the West Indies Associated States. Crosse returned to the United States in order to serve in the United States Army. Following his military service, he was educated at Bloomfield College in Bloomfield, New Jersey. He studied acting under John Cassavetes, and made his film debut in the Cassavetes' directed film Shadows (1958). He played the manager Rupert. Crosse was 31-years-old at the time of his film debut. Crosse appeared regularly in guest star roles in television throughout the 1960s. His next film was Cassavetes' Too Late Blues (1961), about the life of a struggling jazz band. Crosse played bit parts in the legal drama Twilight of Honor (1963), the political drama The Best Man (1964), and the psychological thriller Marnie (1964). He had a more substantial part as a hobo in the romance film Wild Seed (1965). Crosse next played Indian Joe in the western film Ride in the Whirlwind (1966). He befriended the film's leading actor, Jack Nicholson. Crosse had a minor role in another western: Waterhole #3 (1967), a comic remake of Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo (1966). His next role was that of character Ned McCaslin in the coming-of-age film The Reivers (1969). The film was an adaptation of the novel "The Reivers, a Reminiscence" (1962) by William Faulkner, and depicts a group of car thieves who take a brand new 1905 Winton Flyer for a joyride. Crosse was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for this role, but the award was instead won by rival actor Gig Young (1913-1978). Crosse played mostly television roles in the 1970s. He played Detective George Robinson in the television film Confessions of a Top Crime Buster (1971). He was next cast as Robinson again in the sitcom The Partners (1971), which lasted 20 episodes. The sitcom depicted Robinson as one of a duo of bumbling detectives. Crosse was depicted as a Korean War veteran, and more observant of his surroundings than his partner Lennie Crooke (played by Don Adams). The sitcom was canceled due to low ratings, failing to compete against rival sitcom "All in the Family" (1971-1979). Crosse was suffering from lung cancer in 1973, and was forced to decline further roles. He returned to Nevis, where he soon died. He was survived by his wife Chris Calloway, and his only son Rupert Osaze Dia Crosse. Their son died in 2002 from a heart condition, and Chris died in 2008 from breast cancer.

When the world of advertising came knocking, he quickly became one of the most sought after voice actors in London, working on hundreds of campaigns with some of the world's top agencies.

Notably in British costume dramas such as 'Sons & Lovers' starring Sarah Lancashire and Hugo Speer, North and South, 'Crime and Punishment' and 'Fingersmith' with Imelda Staunton and Charles Dance. Added to that he has played major roles in TV series; including Rockface, Paradise Heights and 'A Midsummer Nights Dream'. 2006 was when he starred in his first studio movie, 'Hellboy', directed by 'Guillermo Del Toro', starring Selma Blair, John Hurt and Ron Perlman.

Rupert Everett
Stylish Rupert James Hector Everett was born on May 29, 1959, in Burnham Deepdale, Norfolk, to Sara (Maclean) and Anthony Michael Everett, a Major in the British Army, who later worked in business. Of royal stock, he is of primarily English, Scottish, and Irish ancestry with a dash of German and Dutch thrown in for good measure. Everett grew up in privileged circumstances, but the wry, sometimes arrogant intellectual was a rebel from the very beginning. At the age of seven, he was placed into the care of Benedictine monks at Ampleforth College where he trained classically on the piano. He was expelled from the Central School of Speech and Drama in London for clashing with his teachers and instead apprenticed himself at the avant-garde Glasgow Citizen's Theatre in Scotland, performing in such productions as "Don Juan" and "Heartbreak House." He moved from stage to British TV in 1982 with sophisticated appearances on such series as "Strangers" "Play for Today" and "The Agatha Christie Hour" and the more visibly seen mini-series Princess Daisy (1983) and The Far Pavilions (1984). In 1984, Everett filmed a leading gay role in the acclaimed collegiate-themed picture Another Country (1984), which he had performed earlier on stage in 1981. Earning a BAFTA nomination and shooting to international attention, Rupert became one of England's hottest crossover stars. Top patrician roles in quality films came his way such as Dance with a Stranger (1985) opposite Miranda Richardson and Duet for One (1986) starring Julie Andrews and Alan Bates. The rebel went international instead of Hollywood, however, with top-billing in the Aussie feature The Right Hand Man (1987) with Hugo Weaving; the Italian-made Cronaca di una morte annunciata (1987) and the French drama Tolérance (1989) opposite Ugo Tognazzi. Again, however, the wickedly sharp and suave actor doused his own star fire by clashing with the press and even his own fans in the late 1980's. In 1989, Everett openly and proudly declared his homosexuality which put an initial damper on his status as a romantic leading man. Appearing sporadically in such featured roles as the Prince of Wales in the majestic drama The Madness of King George (1994) and Lord Rutledge in the family comedy Dunston Checks In (1996), Rupert's popularity was re-energized after playing Julia Roberts' gay confidante to droll effect in the box-office comedy hit My Best Friend's Wedding (1997), earning him both BAFTA and Golden Globe nominations. He continued to impress thereafter, notably in such classical-styled pieces as Shakespeare in Love (1998) (as Christopher Marlowe), A Midsummer Night's Dream (1999) (as Oberon), and the Oscar Wilde plays An Ideal Husband (1999) (as Lord Goring, Golden Globe nominee) and The Importance of Being Earnest (2002) (as Algy). On the lighter, fun side, his predilection for mischief was demonstrated as the cartoonish villain Dr. Claw, the nemesis of Matthew Broderick's title character, in Inspector Gadget (1999). Into the millennium, Rupert continued to be a vibrant presence on stage with a tour of "Private Lives" (in Italian) in 2008, a 2009 Broadway revival of "Blithe Spirit" (his New York debut) and as Henry Higgins in Shaw's "Pygmalion" in Munich the following year. He went on to play Oscar Wilde in "The Judas Kiss" in 2013 and was about to play George on Broadway in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" when the play closed before it officially opened due to the COVID pandemic in 2020. On TV, he played the effortlessly suave Sherlock Holmes in Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Silk Stocking (2004), the Marquis de Feron in the British series The Musketeers (2014) and Carroll Quinn in a second British series Adult Material (2020). On film, Everett enhanced the royal dramas To Kill a King (2003) and Stage Beauty (2004) as King Charles I and King Charles II, respectively. Known for his aloof handsomeness and often smug, piss-elegant characters, he engagingly portrayed a jet-setter in the contemporary film People (2004); provided the voice of the unprincely Prince Charming in the animated features Shrek 2 (2004) and Shrek the Third (2007); played a British defector opposite Sharon Stone in the romantic thriller A Different Loyalty (2004); a millionaire playboy involved in a hit-and-run in Separate Lies (2005); an eccentric tycoon in Hysteria (2011); King George VI (father of Queen Elizabeth) opposite Emily Watson's Queen Mum in the romantic dramedy A Royal Night Out (2015); a monsignor in If I Had a Heart (2013); and tortured gay playwright Oscar Wilde during his last days in The Happy Prince (2018), which he wrote and directed. A novelist on the sly with Hello, Darling, Are You Working? (1989), Rupert has also published two volumes of memoirs: Red Carpets and Other Banana Skins (2006) and Vanished Years (2012), produced documentaries .
