Christopher Plummer

You probably know of Christopher Plummer, who played Captain von Trapp in Sound of Music way back in 1965.

Many people have this nostalgic Disney-like image of Plummer. So, I find it amusing to note what he’s been working on since:

  • Voices in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004)
  • Narrator in The Gospel of John (2003)
  • Dracula 2000
  • General Chang in Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country (1991) and Star Trek: Klingon Academy (2000 video game)
  • Dragnet (1987)
  • Sherlock Holmes in Murder by Decree (1979)
  • Sir Charles Litton in The Return of the Pink Panther (1975)
  • Duke of Wellington in Waterloo (1970)

Quite a varied tale. Speaks to his skills as an actor, I guess.
