'Christophe Guy Denis Lambert' (; French:
[\[lɑ̃bɛʁ\]]{lang="fr-Latn-fonipa"}; born March 29, 1957), often credited
as 'Christopher Lambert', is a French--American actor, producer, and
writer.^\[1\]^ He started his career playing supporting parts in several
French films, and became internationally famous for portraying Tarzan in
*Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes* (1984). For his
performance in the film *Subway* (1985), he received the César Award for
Best Actor. He is known for his role as Connor MacLeod in the
adventure-fantasy film *Highlander* (1986) and the subsequent television
and film franchise of the same title, Raiden in *Mortal Kombat* (1995),
Methodius in *Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance* (2011), and Arne Seslum
in *Hail, Caesar!* (2016). He also served as executive producer for
*Nine Months* (1995).^\[2\]^
Christophe Guy Denis Lambert^\[3\]^ was born in Great Neck, New York, on
March 29, 1957, the son of Yolande Agnès Henriette and Georges
Lambert-Lamond, a French diplomat at the United Nations.^\[4\]^ His
father was Jewish.^\[5\]^ Due to his father\'s work, Lambert moved with
his parents to Switzerland at the age of two,^\[3\]^ and was raised in
Geneva, where he attended the International School of Geneva^\[6\]^ and
the Institut Florimont until his teenage years,^\[3\]^ when the family
moved to France and settled in Paris.^\[7\]^ Lambert\'s debut in acting
was in a school play age 12.^\[3\]^
Director Hugh Hudson and Warner Brothers chose Lambert, wanting an
unknown actor to play Tarzan, a human raised by apes in the
jungle.^\[8\]^ Lambert got the role beating out Viggo Mortensen and
Stellan Skarsgard partly thanks to his myopia, because when he took off
his glasses it seemed he was always looking into the distance.^\[9\]^
Released in 1984, *Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes*,
was nominated for many awards.^\[9\]^ Also that year, Lambert starred
opposite Catherine Deneuve in *Love Songs*.
He played the lead in Luc Besson\'s stylistic film *Subway* (1985),
about a man being hunted in the underground subways of Paris.^\[10\]^
In 1986, Lambert appeared in *Highlander* ^\[11\]^ the role for which he
would be best known. In the film, Lambert starred as Connor MacLeod, an
immortal warrior who could be killed only by decapitation.^\[11\]^
Lambert was cast in the role after Kurt Russell dropped out of the film
and after director Russell Mulcahy saw a picture of him in a magazine.
Despite barely speaking English, Lambert spent weeks learning the
language before filming with a dialect coach. The film became a cult hit
and was an international box-office success, rock group Queen composed
and performed the soundtrack,^\[7\]^ and Lambert also appeared as
MacLeod in the music video for Queen\'s \"Princes of the
Universe\".^\[12\]^ In 1987, Lambert played the leading role of
Salvatore Giuliano in *The Sicilian*,^\[13\]^ directed by Michael
Cimino. In 1988, he starred in Agnieszka Holland\'s *To Kill a Priest*,
in which he played a character based on Jerzy Popiełuszko and his murder
under the Polish communist regime.^\[14\]^
He was offered the role of Martin Riggs in *Lethal Weapon*, but he
turned the role down. He was John Glen\'s first choice for the role of
James Bond in *The Living Daylights*, but he was ultimately turned down
due to his accent. He was also considered for the lead role of Edward
Lewis in *Pretty Woman* back when the film was known as \"3000.\"
In 1991, *Highlander II: The Quickening* premiered, reuniting Lambert
with director Russell Mulcahy and fellow actor Sean Connery.^\[15\]^
Shot in Argentina (which was going through a financial crisis) to reduce
production costs, much of the script was not filmed and the final result
was a patchwork.^\[16\]^ It was said, Lambert threatened to walk out of
the project when it was nearing fruition, However, due to contractual
obligations, he reconsidered.^\[16\]^ In 1992, he appeared in three
projects. He appeared in the first episode of the television show
*Highlander: The Series*, passing on the lead role to actor Adrian
Paul.^\[16\]^ He also appeared in the French crime thriller *Max et
Jérémie*, co-starring Philippe Noiret and Jean-Pierre Marielle.^\[17\]^
In 1993, Carl Schenkel\'s suspense thriller *Knight Moves* premiered, in
which Lambert was both an executive producer and the lead.^\[18\]^
Lambert plays a chess grandmaster suspected of murder.^\[18\]^ Later
that year, Stuart Gordon\'s science fiction film *Fortress* premiered,
with Lambert playing the lead.^\[19\]^ The story takes place in a
dystopian future where a man and his wife are sent to a maximum-security
prison because they are expecting a second child, which is against the
strict one-child policy.
1994 saw the release of two collaborations with actor Mario Van
Peebles.^\[16\]^ They played the side by side leads in the action film
*Gunmen*, and Van Peebles was the main villain in *Highlander III: The
Sorcerer*.^\[16\]^ In this third installment of the franchise, Connor
MacLeod is forced to face a new, dangerous enemy, a powerful sorcerer
known as Kane who wants to gain world domination.^\[16\]^ Lambert also
starred in the action film *Roadflower*. In France, he produced his
second Patrick Braoudé film called *Neuf mois*, which was nominated for
two Césars.^\[20\]^
In 1995, he played the role of the thunder god Raiden in the Paul W. S.
Anderson\'s movie adaptation of the popular video game series *Mortal
Kombat*.^\[21\]^ The plot of the film follows the warrior monk Liu Kang,
the actor Johnny Cage, and the soldier Sonya Blade, all three guided by
the god Raiden,^\[21\]^ on their journey to combat the evil sorcerer
Shang Tsung and his forces in a tournament to save Earth.^\[21\]^
Lambert later reprised the role in the MK Movie Skin Pack in the 2020
game *Mortal Kombat 11*.^\[21\]^ Also that year, he also starred in the
American-Japanese martial arts action film *The Hunted*, directed by J.
F. Lawton, with a cast that included John Lone, Joan Chen, Yoshio
Harada, and Yoko Shimada,^\[22\]^ and produced Xavier Beauvois\'s
*Don\'t Forget You\'re Going to Die*, which won the Special Jury Award
at the Gijón International Film Festival, won the Prix Jean Vigo, won
the Jury Prize and was nominated for the Palme d\'Or at the Cannes Film

mois*.^\[13\]^
In 1996, Lambert was an executive producer and the lead in Nils Gaup\'s
western film *North Star*, co-starring James Caan.^\[13\]^ The same year
he was a producer of *When Saturday Comes*, a football sport drama
starring Sean Bean.^\[13\]^ In 1997, he starred in Gabriele Salvatores\'
cyberpunk science fiction film *Nirvana*.^\[17\]^ The film tells the
story of a virtual reality game designer, played by Lambert, who

to an attack by a computer virus. The film was screened out of
competition at the Cannes Film Festival.^\[24\]^ The same year, he also

earlier. The same year, he produced and played a man with a mental
disability, who moved into a nursing home, in the film *Gideon*.^\[17\]^
