More About Hot Actor Marlon Clarke

By Madeline Finch


Canada is not only a country of mountains, lakes and remote wilderness. It has a bustling arts scene and film and television industry. Many of the world's most famous and popular actors, including Jim Carrey, Dan Aykroyd, Mike Myers, Ryan Gosling, Christopher Plummer, William Shatner and the Sutherlands, father Donald and son Kiefer, hail from the land of the maple leaf. The country has also produced some big-screen beefcakes like Keanu Reeves. An up-and-coming industry hottie hoping to follow in these famous footsteps is Masimba Marlon Clarke.

Marlon was born in the year 1974, in Winnipeg, a city in Manitoba province. When he was six months old, his family moved to Trinidad and Tobago, where he lived for five years. The family then moved back to the city of their son's birth and lived there until the boy was ten. They then moved to Canada's largest city, Toronto.

As a high-school student, the young Mr Clarke realized that he wanted to pursue a career in acting. He switched to Drama as the first step in following this dream. Starring in school plays and taking classes in the craft after school helped him to nurture his talent.

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.

The first break came in 2001, when Mr Clarke was cast in a small role in an independent film. It was a horror movie titled 'Massacre Up North', by writer and director Paul Stoichevski. It tells the tale of a man who was badly maimed in a burning accident and then goes on the rampage to get back at everybody who ever teased him about his looks. The young actor portrayed a police officer.

During the same period the Canadian rockers The Tragically Hip needed a video for a single off their seventh studio album. The song 'My Music at Work' eventually got a video that featured a group of office workers who get up from their desks and dance, bringing some excitement to their drab environment. The beefy actor featured as one of these office workers and showed that not only does he have acting talent, but he can rock some great moves too.

The up-and-coming actor also had a small role guest-starring in one of the episodes of 'This is Wonderland', a popular television series filmed and set in Canada. The legal-themed comedy-drama is set in Old City Hall in Toronto and stars Cara Pifko as a criminal lawyer. The series won several awards in Canada. In the third season, there is an episode with a character called 'Omar number 2', played by Marlon.

Marlon Clarke not only acts. His beefy looks have earned him several modelling jobs too, especially in print ad campaigns. These include ads for Cara Foods, Adidas, Captivate Network, Staples, Jackson Hewitt Tax Services, the Liquor Control Board of Ontario and the Canadian Blood Services.
