Robert Carlyle – 60, Glasgow

At the age of 21, Robert Carlyle got involved in his local drama scene, joining the Glasgow Arts Centre. According to some reports, the Trainspotting actor was inspired by Arthur Miller’s play, The Crucible, and thus decided to pursue an acting career.

Today, Carlyle is famous for playing dark, sadistic, and disturbing characters. Notable acting credits on his resume include The World Is Not Enough, Trainspotting, The Full Monty, and Ravenous. The third season of his action drama, Cobra, aired earlier this year on the Sky network. The series depicts the chaos and lawlessness of a country stricken with widespread power outages.
