Muere el actor escocés Brian McCardie, de 'Outlander' y 'Line of Duty' a los 59 años

El mundo de la televisión británica ha perdido a uno de sus actores con currículum más extenso a lo largo de los años. El escocés Brian McCardie ha fallecido a los 59 años, según informaba su hermana Sarah. Su muerte marca un punto y aparte en la pequeña pantalla del Reino Unido, después de su participación en múltiples proyectos televisivos, como Line of Duty, Eastenders o incluso la exitosa Outlander.

“Con gran tristeza anunciamos el fallecimiento de Brian James McCardie, amado hijo, hermano, tío y querido amigo de muchos. Brian murió repentinamente en su casa el domingo 28 de abril. Un actor maravilloso y apasionado en el escenario y la pantalla, Brian amaba su trabajo, impactó en muchas vidas y se fue demasiado pronto. Lo amamos y lo echaremos mucho de menos”, escribía Sarah McCradie a través de X (Twitter).

Nacido en Glasgow en 1965, creció entre las poblaciones de Motherwell y Carluke, y estando en el colegio empezó a desarrollar un interés por las artes interpretativas. Su primer papel fue en una obra de teatro local llamada Godspell, realizada con un grupo de jóvenes aficionados al teatro. A partir de ahí, su interés aumentó hasta el año 1989, cuando oficialmente debutó en pantalla como personaje secundario en la longeva Eastenders.

La película Forget About Me, de 1990, se convertiría en su primer papel cinematográfico, antes de obtener un rol recurrente en la serie Waterfront Beat, interpretando a PC Ronnie Barker. Durante los años venideros sus papeles seguirían sumándose de forma sucesiva, entre ellos uno con el actor Liam Nesson en una exitosa película de 1995, Rob Roy. Sin embargo, sus roles más conocidos se darían a partir de los 2000.

La producción original se estrenó en 2014, mientras que la nueva producción todavía está en desarrollo, sin fecha de estreno. Constará de un total de diez episodios y estará disponible a través del canal de televisión estadounidense Starz.
