Nicholas Campbell on AllMovie

An able "action player," Canadian actor Nicholas Campbell was all action and no lines in his bit roles in A Bridge too Far (1975), The Eagle Has Landed (1976) and The Spy Who Loved Me (1977). Campbell was third-billed as Sniffer in the 1985 Tatum O'Neal/Irene Cara vehicle A Certain Fury, and was "adult relief" in the bizarre 1987 street-gang musical Knights of the City. Campbell's series TV gigs include the leading roles of investigative reporter Nick Fox on The Insiders (1986) and private eye Mike Devitt on the Canadian-filmed Diamonds (1987). In 1983 Campbell starred as the enigmatic, expository title character on the HBO anthology series The Hitchhiker.
