From Cannes to Krypton: Terence Stamp’s 10 career milestones

Highlights

  • Oscar-nominated debut in Billy Budd (1962)
  • Immortalised as General Zod in Superman (1978 & 1980)
  • Career revival in The Hit (1984)
  • Missed iconic roles like James Bond and Alfie
  • Final performance in Last Night in Soho (2021)

Terence Stamp never played life safely. He wasn’t the sort of actor who coasted on charm or looks, though he had both in abundance. Instead, he kept disappearing and reappearing, reinventing himself each time, with roles that felt daring, unsettling, or quietly revolutionary. He could have been a matinée idol forever, but that would’ve been boring. Stamp preferred to be unpredictable.
