Whatever else has changed around him, Marshall Napier has remained a working actor who has rarely been away from the screen for long. The career has been split between cinema and television rather than settled in either. In cinemas, 'Babe' is the work that stuck — Chairman of Judges, specifically. Viewers may also know him from 'The Light Between Oceans'. The oldest credits belong to a different era of the industry. Drama is where the largest part of the work sits.
