About

Born in 1964, Eccleston reached international stardom as the "Ninth Doctor" in Doctor Who in March 2005, even though he only played the role for a single season. He has appeared in numerous other films, including Amelia, 28 Days Later, Elizabeth, Thor: The Dark World, and Shallow Grave; other notable television work includes The Second Coming and Cracker. He most recently portrayed "Destro" in the recent G.I. Joe movie.

Trivia

  • The producers of Heroes offered Christopher Eccleston two different roles, Sylar and Claude. Christopher declined the role of Sylar because he thought it was a cliché for European actors to play villains in American culture.
