A career across stage and screen
Alfred Molina was born in London on 24 May 1953. His career spans film, television and theatre on both sides of the Atlantic.
His film credits include Raiders of the Lost Ark and Frida, in which he played the artist Diego Rivera opposite Salma Hayek.
Molina played scientist Otto Octavius, known as Doctor Octopus, in Spider-Man 2 and returned to the role in Spider-Man: No Way Home. The character combines scientific ambition with a personal tragedy.
His Broadway work includes Art, Fiddler on the Roof and Red, each earning him a Tony nomination. These stage roles show another dimension of a career often recognised through film.
