Joseph Marcell moved to England when nine years old, and there went to the University of Sheffield where he studied theatre and science, following which he took speech and dance classes. He started his career in the TV movie “Antony and Cleopatra” (1974), starring Richard Johnson, Janet Suzman, and Rosemary McHale. Joseph then moved to the stage where he played in productions of “Othello” and “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” as a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
Marcell returned to TV, and appeared as Walter Isaacs in 15 episodes of “Empire Road” from 1978 to 1979. During the next five years, Joseph had minor roles in series such as “Fancy Wanders” (1980), “Crown Court” (1981), “The Professionals” (1983), “Rumpole of the Bailey” (1983), and “Juliet Bravo” (1985), which only increased his net worth.
