The Faith of an Actor: Mark Williams Talks About “Father Brown” and His 30-Year Career

 


Mark Williams has not portrayed the adorable Arthur Weasley, father of seven, for some time. Although we still love Williams for this role, there is no doubt that his talents are seen elsewhere. The 60-year-old is currently on BBC One’s Father Brown, starring the main character of the production. Father Brown is a Catholic priest who has a gift for solving crimes, especially murders. The local police officer, who is supposed to better resolve the murders, is frustrated with the father’s success.

Williams sat down for an interview with the local Pennsylvanian newspaper on Reading eagle to discuss the show, his life and his career. He says that despite playing a Catholic priest on television for eight seasons, he is not a religious man.

I grew up in the Church of England, so it’s part of my culture. But I don’t practice my religion. Father Brown believes in redemption, and he believes that all of God’s children were gods, and he’s a man of faith, so I respect him.

There is one aspect of his life, however, where Williams says you have to have some faith. For some, being an actor is not always synonymous with job security.

Towards the end of each job, everyone is a little worried about whether they will work again. So sometimes it’s a bit desperate. It’s not like you can play the violin or write a short story, practice something, or paint. Unless you’re in a production, you don’t work, so you don’t exercise your skills. So it becomes very difficult.

But he continues to act, not just out of love but also because he says it’s the only thing he can do. Williams began his professional acting career when he was in his thirties. Before that, he held several jobs and acted only when he could.

I worked as a painter, in a stud farm with bulls. I worked in a psychogeriatrics department in a mental hospital. Could you do [an acting] work, but it’s only for two weeks. So I was in my thirties before having a regular job. For some reason, I pasted it. It was blind faith and ignorance.

When Williams’ agent contacted him for the role in Father Brown, he was delighted to be offered such an opportunity. Even if he didn’t share the character’s sense of faith, it didn’t bother him. The only problem that Williams said he was really facing the character was actually his size. Father Brown is described as being much shorter than Williams, who is just over six feet tall. To compensate, he simply says: “I have to act small.”

Not only did we see Williams bring Arthur Weasley to life, but he also played Rory Williams’ father on Doctor Who for a short period of time, a vampire in later seasons of the BBC version of To be humanand one of Cruella de Vil’s goons in the 1996 live-action film 101 Dalmatians.

We can’t wait to see what Mark Williams will play next. Until then, you can catch up on all these seasons of Father Brown, which is currently airing on BritBox. Do you have a favorite role from Williams? Write to us and let us know!
