Sam Neill: Jurassic Park
built 218 days ago
Neill continued to undertake challenging roles in a wide variety of projects. He was well-cast as the wealthy man who brings home a robot to aid around the house in "Bicentennial Man" (1999) and earned critical praise for a pair of Australian-produced films: "My Mother Frank" (1999), which cast him as a chauvinistic, conservative college professor who runs up against a fifty-something co-ed (Sinead Cusack), and "The Dish" (2000), in which he was the cardigan-wearing, imperturbable scientist in charge of the telescope that was to relay signals of the American moon landing in 1969. In between, the actor offered a fine turn as US President Thomas Jefferson in the CBS miniseries "Sally Hemings: An American Scandal" (2000). Following another real-life portrayal on the small screen (this time, the commander of a US submarine trapped underwater in the 2001 NBC movie "Submerged"), Neill revisited his role as paleontologist Dr. Alan Grant in "Jurassic Park III" (2001).

Neill has said that he has not yet been asked to reprise his role as Dr. Alan Grant in the possible 2008 movie, Jurassic Park IV. Neil ... appeared in Merlin (1998), a film based on the legend of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake, portraying the legendary wizard. He also reprised his role as Merlin in the film's not-so-well received sequel, Merlin's Apprentice (2006), in which Merlin learns he fathered a son with the evil witch, Mab.
