More About Hot Actor Marlon Clarke

By Madeline Finch


Canada is the birthplace of many of the world's favorite actors. They include actors known for their comedy skills, like Jim Carrey, Mike Myers, Matthew Perry, Alan Thicke, Michael J Fox and Dan Aykroyd. Dramatic actors like Christopher Plummer, Donald Sutherland and his son Kiefer are Canadian exports too. Masimba Marlon Clarke is a rising star on the Canadian firmament who hopes to follow in these famous footsteps.

Even though he was born in the Manitoba city of Winnipeg, Marlon lived in Trinidad and Tobago until he was five. The Clarke family then returned to Canada, once again settling in Winnipeg. When the boy was ten years old, the Clarkes moved again, this time to the province of Ontario to live in bustling Toronto.

During his high-school years in Canada's largest city, the young Marlon discovered the joys of acting. He became a Drama major and was on stage in various school productions. To help him hone his craft, he enrolled in extracurricular acting classes too.

After graduating from high school, the actor-to-be enrolled in college. Even though he studied journalism, his true destiny would remain acting. In the last year of the Nineties he got his diploma and then started working on following his star.

Two years after graduating, the actor landed his first role in a movie. It was an independent horror film called 'Massacre Up North' and was written and directed by Paul Stoichevski. Marlon had a small role as a policeman in this story about a burn victim who takes violent revenge on all those who had made fun of his appearance since his accident years before.

At around the same time, popular Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip released a new album, their seventh studio recording. One of the singles off the album was called 'My Music at Work'. The video features a drab office setting in which uniformly dressed 'office workers' become inspired by one of their colleagues' music. The up-and-coming young actor showed off his dancing skills in this video as one of the office workers.

Marlon also made a guest appearance in an episode of the award-winning Canadian television series 'This is Wonderland'. Set in Toronto and especially in its Old City Hall, the series was a legal comedy-drama that was aired in Canada to great critical acclaim, with Cara Pifko in the lead role as a committed criminal lawyer. The actor from Winnipeg starred in an episode of the third season of this popular series, playing the role of 'Omar number 2'.

Standing five feet nine inches tall in his socks, the beefy Toronto-based actor helps pay the bills by modelling. He has appeared in many print advertisements, portraying anything from an office worker to a party animal and even a soldier. Some of the clients included sportswear manufacturer Adidas, restaurant and catering company Cara Foods, digital media company Captivate Network, Jackson Hewitt Tax Services, office supply chain Staples, the Canadian Blood Services and the Liquor Control Board of Ontario.
