Due South Actor

2016-12-15 15:21:24 · answer #2 · answered by ? 4 · 0 0

Despite his busy schedule, he has made time for one of his other passions: music. He studied classical guitar as a teenager, but that activity was curtailed by a broken finger. In 1989, he was writing rock'n'roll lyrics and performing with his band, the Bone Men. In the Fall of 1997, he and writing partner David Keeley released their country-western album Two Houses. He made a music video out of one of those songs, "Voodoo," and did another video for a Due South related song, "32 Down on the Robert Mackenzie." He completed the song (along with Jay Semko and Dean McDermott) entitled "Santa Drives a Pickup," which was showcased on the Due South episode "Good for the Soul" and is available on the CD "Holiday Heroes." He and David Keeley are currently working on a second CD, tentatively titled "Songs of Love and Carnage," due in mid-2000. Paul is married to stage actress Martha Burns, whom he met in 1983 while they were both in the play Walsh. She played an Indian Princess and he portrayed a Mountie. Martha is well known for her performances at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, and guest starred in the third season Due South episodes, "Spy vs. Spy" and "Call of the Wild." They have two children, Hannah and Jack, and reside (along with their pet dog Chester) in Ontario, Canada. Paul also lends his hand to numerous charitable events, and hosting duties, such as the annual Gemini Awards.
To relax, he reads, or goes fishing and camping. He also enjoys skiing and horseback riding, the latter which he learned as a youth on his parents' ranch. He has a few ambitions: to play Richard III, but his main one is "to be driving out on my parents' ranch and hear one of my songs on the radio." Due South is now gone, but he's keeping very busy. He's written a movie about curling entitled Men with Brooms, which he hopes to produce. In late 1999, he appeared in the Canadian telemovie Murder Most Likely, based on the real life incident of ex-Mountie Patrick Kelly, who was convicted of the murder of his wife. This movie is the first from his new production company, WhizBang Films, and was featured on the cover of many television magazines when it aired.

Paul Michael Gross (born on 30 April 1959), is a Canadian actor, producer, director, singer and writer born in Calgary, Alberta. He has two children, Jack and Hannah, with fellow actor Martha Burns whom he married in September 1987,having met her while they were both performing in Walsh at the The National Arts Centre in Ottawa. Burns was an Indian Princess and Gross was a mountie. At the time of their wedding Paul was finishing work on Getting Married In Buffalo Jump and Martha was appearing in a production of Blood Wedding. Martha is a founder of the Toronto Arts For Youth Association and the Soulpepper theatre company. The family shares a home with Chester, their golden retriever, in Toronto. He is internationally best known for his lead role as Constable Benton Fraser in the television series Due South.

As an army brat, Paul and his family rarely spent more than two years in one place. They lived in England, Germany and the USA before settling back in Canada in the 1970s. Besides Calgary, Alberta Paul has lived in the province of New Brunswick and in Toronto, Ontario.

While living in Camberley, England, Paul attended Cheswyks School in nearby Frimley Green. He left after two years, speaking with a proper British accent and able to use a butter knife. "I always say I was civilised by England," he has jokingly said. Around 1969 or 1970 he lived in New Brunswick while his father was stationed at Gagetown with the Royal Canadian Dragoons. He moved to Washington during his early teens and his drama teacher gave him the inspiration to work as an actor. Paul also began a study of the world's major religions during this time. He finished high school at the Earl Haig Secondary School in Toronto, Ontario. He spent the summer working as a gofer at the Stratford Festival of Canada box office when he was 16.

Paul Gross's character in Due South is a Mountie who comes to Chicago in order to find the killers of his father. He does, but in so doing implicates several members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in the killing, and on charges of internal corruption. For having "turned in one of his own", the Canadian authorities decide he must remain in Chicago and act as liaison between the Chicago Police Department and the Canadian Consulate. However, during the show all he is seen to do is solve crimes with his friend Detective Ray Vecchio (David Marciano) and his faithful companion Diefenbaker a deaf half-wolf.

Benton Fraser is the archetypal Mountie, dogged, polite and compulsively truthful. The themes of the series often featured his rigid moral code being tested by the realities of Chicago life.

In the third and fourth seasons, Benton was partnered with another street-wise detective assuming the role of Ray Vecchio while he is under cover, his real name being Detective Stanley Raymond Kowalski. Callum Keith Rennie stars as the charming yet disturbed detective. Although the change of partner inevitably gave the show a different tone, all Due South's trademark features continued to shine through - the wit, warmth and surrealism remaining intact as well as the central dynamic of the relationship between the Mountie and the Chicago cop. And Callum's introduction as Stanley Raymond Kowalski brought a renewed edge and revitalised the show's premise.

After the show was cancelled twice by CBS, third and fourth seasons were commissioned by foreign television companies, with Paul Gross as Executive Producer. Gross himself was the first to say that he did not know what his new post would entail. In addition to this role, he wrote the season three opener "Burning Down the House" , the two part season three finale "Mountie on the Bounty" and the two part series finale "Call of the Wild".

Gross also wrote and sang songs in the show (including season three's "Robert Mackenzie"), some of which can be found on the two Due South soundtracks.

Amongst his many other roles over the years, before and since Due South, he has portrayed:

the title role in Hamlet at the Stratford Festival of Canada
Chris Cutter in the Canadian curling movie Men with Brooms
Tom McLaughlin in the CBC mini-series H2O
Geoffrey Tennant in the TMN mini-series Slings and Arrows
Brian Hawkes in the first of the Tales of the City series
John Diefenbaker in Prairie Giant: The Tommy Douglas Story
In the 2006 film Passchendaele, he will portray his own grandfather, who served in the 10th Battalion, CEF during the Battle of Passchendaele in the First World War.
