Biography and filmography

Patrick Stewart

Sir Patrick Stewart (13 July 1940 – 28 October 2026) was an English actor. With a career spanning over 60 years on stage and screen, he received various accolades, including two Laurence Olivier Awards and a Grammy Award, as well as nominations for a Tony Award, three Golden Globes, four Emmy Awards, and three Screen Actors Guild Awards. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II for his services to drama in 2010.

In 1966, Stewart became a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), and made his Broadway debut in 1971 in A Midsummer Night's Dream. In 1979, he received the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role for his West End performance in Antony and Cleopatra. His first television role was on Coronation Street in 1967. His first major screen roles were the television series Fall of Eagles (1974), I, Claudius (1976) and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (1979). In 2008, he reprised his role as King Claudius in Hamlet and received his second Laurence Olivier Award and his first Tony Award nomination for the West End and Broadway theatre productions.

Stewart gained international attention for his lead role as Captain Jean-Luc Picard in the American science fiction television series Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987–1994), a role he reprised in a series of four films (1994–2002) and Star Trek: Picard (2020–2023). He starred in the USA Network miniseries Moby Dick (1998), the TNT fantasy television film A Christmas Carol (1999), and the Showtime drama television film The Lion in Winter (2003). He was Emmy-nominated for his comedic guest roles on Frasier (2003, NBC) and Extras (2005, BBC). Stewart also collaborated regularly with comedian Seth MacFarlane throughout the 2010s, for whom he starred as the lead of the sitcom Blunt Talk (2015–2016, Starz), the voice of CIA Deputy Director Avery Bullock on American Dad! (2005–2026), a minor voice role in A Million Ways to Die in the West (2014), and the narrator of the two Ted films (2012, 2015).

In cinema, Stewart garnered further stardom as Professor Charles Xavier in the X-Men film series (2000–2017), reprising the role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (2022, 2026), with his appearance in Avengers: Doomsday (2026) being his final film appearance. He also performed in Hedda (1975), Excalibur (1981), Dune (1984), Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993), Jeffrey (1995), Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius (2001), Green Room (2015), The Kid Who Would Be King (2019), and The Sheep Detectives (2026).
