Stephen Boyd Facts
While working as a doorman in 1955, Boyd was discovered by Sir Michael Redgrave, who got him his first film role.

Shortly before his death he was seriously considered for the role of the Regimental Sergeant Major in The Wild Geese (1978), which was subsequently played by Jack Watson.

In 1976, in what would be his final interview, Boyd expressed regret at concentrating so heavily on movies and said he wished he had acted more on stage and on television.
