The actor who puts the spark into Stark.
Paul Goddard got the part of Stark after originally auditioning for Scorpius. Since then he’s turned in a masterfully unhinged performance as the erratic Banik, based on actors from One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s nest and Twelve Monkeys.
It obviously appealed to Farscape’s producers, as Stark became a semi-regular instead of the two-episode character he was first meant to be.
An experienced actor in film and theatre, Paul Goddard has appeared in blockbusters such as The Matrix, as Agent Brown, Babe, Holy Smoke and The Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers. He’s also done a lot of TV work, including a stint in ‘95-’96 on Coronation Street as "Stephen".
