Детство и юность

Мальчик, прославившийся под именем Пола Джеймса «Маккензи» Курка, родился в сентябре 1971 года в восточно-английском графстве Кент. Его предки из города Мейдстон являлись представителями рядовых профессий и в молодости не знали, что их фамилия попадет в ряд кинолегенд.

Отец будущего актера работал в авиакомпании British Airways, а мать, получившая медицинское образование, была администратором одной из больниц. Помимо сына в семье воспитывались 2 веселые жизнелюбивые девочки, входившие в школьные годы в число талантливых учениц.

Пол Джеймс с подачи интеллигентных родителей стремился овладеть академическими знаниями, поэтому поступил в гимназию в возрасте 6,5 лет. Общение с одноклассниками и педагогами способствовало формированию личности, и постепенно любопытный ребенок на сотни вопросов нашел ответы.

В детстве из-за проблем со здоровьем мальчик прошел курс гормональной терапии, потому что болезнь тормозила развитие таких параметров, как рост и вес. Врачи рекомендовали теплый климат, и на лето Маккензи ездил к дяде в Зимбабве, где увлекся рисованием местных пейзажей, полных загадок и чудес.

В подростковом возрасте Крук начал участвовать в театрализованных постановках, и со временем окружающие заметили, что у британского школьника проявился талант. К моменту окончания учебного заведения, расположенного в городе Дартфорт, Пол Джеймс стал известен местной публике как юный актер и музыкант.

Решив не продолжать учебу, парень перебрал десяток профессий, прежде чем попасть в профессиональную труппу и дебютировать в кино. Он работал разносчиком пиццы и санитаром в провинциальной больнице, а затем стал играть комедийные скетчи, тем самым приоткрыв в мир искусства окно.

В середине 1990-х молодой человек, обладавший неординарной внешностью и при росте 175 см весивший около 70 кг, попал в картину «Человек, который влюбился в дорожный конус». Это стало шансом присоединиться к британским творческим кругам.

Фильмы

В 1998 году Крук получил работу в скеч-шоу Barking, где участвовали такие актеры, как Кэтрин Тейт и Маркус Бригсток. Сыграв преподавателя естествознания со взбалмошным несносным характером, молодой мужчина набрался опыта и получил ценный урок.

Потом он появился в пародийной программе под названием Eleven O’clock Show, которая транслировалась в вечернее время и привлекала внимание сотен людей. Благодаря эпизодам, где главными персонажами являлись журналисты и репортеры, Крук попал в поле зрения продюсеров и получил ряд интересных ролей

В начале 2000-х годов, продолжая успешную карьеру на телевидении, британец посетил десятки кастингов в поисках сценария по душе. На одном из прослушиваний он вдохновился историей об отделе бумажной компании и в течение недели беспрерывно думал о приглянувшемся типаже.

Авторы комедийного проекта «Офис» Рики Джервейс и Стивен Мерчант решили, что Маккензи отлично впишется в выдуманный несложный сюжет. Роль торгового представителя Гарета Кинена — мужчины, лишенного чувства юмора, — запомнилась британским зрителям на последующие 10 лет.

К сожалению, в прокате появилось только 2 сезона по 6 эпизодов, а потом по неизвестным причинам комедийный сериал был закрыт. Актер, которого дважды номинировали на престижную премию BAFTA, однажды проснулся и понял, что бескрайне счастлив и знаменит.

После пары второстепенных ролей в фильмах британских продюсеров и режиссеров Крук, движимый актерскими амбициями, отправился покорять Голливуд. Там он дебютировал в приключенческой саге «Пираты Карибского моря», и персонаж по имени Раджетти приглянулся публике с первых минут.

В середине 2000-х годов удачно начавшаяся большая фильмография артиста пополнилась картинами «Человек-паучник», «Братья Гримм» и «Венецианский купец». В тот же период на экраны вышла кинобиография писателя Джеймса Барри, где Крук, снявшийся в эпизодической роли покорил сотни сердец.

Затем публика снова увидела морского разбойника без глаза в блокбастере режиссера Гора Вербински «Пираты Карибского моря: Сундук мертвеца». Маккензи надеялся, что образ, контрастировавший с Пинтелом в исполнении Ли Аренберга, позволит остаться со съемочной группой популярной эпопеи до конца.

Однако после приключений «на краю света» продюсеры разошлись во мнениях с актером, и 4-я и 5-я части фильма были сделаны без него. Немного расстроенный исполнитель постарался не падать духом и вскоре нашел интересные сценарии в американском и британском кино.

Параллельно со съемками он озвучивал мультик «Ролли и Эльф: Невероятные приключения», а также участвовал в спектаклях английского театра Royal Court. Премия «Тони» за роль Константина в постановке Иэна Риксона «Чайка» привнесла в карьеру актера новый продуктивный поворот.

В 2010-м Маккензи выступил на благотворительном мероприятии, где звезды музыки и кинематографа представили прозу и стихи. Тогда же на лондонской сцене знаменитого ковент-гарденского театра «Склада Донмар» исполнитель в пьесе The Recruiting Officer сыграл вербовщика средней руки.

К телевизионным работам того времени относились популярные сериалы «Крошка Доррит», «Молокососы», «Мерлин» и «Любовный суп». А появление в знаменитом проекте канала HBO «Игра престолов» позволило британцу из кентского Мейдстона попасть в элитный зрительский клуб.

В 2014 году Крук создал собственную фантастическую комедию, которая под названием «Искатели сокровищ» была показана на BBC Four. Выступив в качестве автора, режиссера и исполнителя главной роли, актер освоил до этого чуждые профессии в производстве кино.

Сериал снискал положительные отзывы английских и американских критиков и был удостоен престижной премии British Academy Television Awards. Историю с любовью, интригой и приключениями, а также талантливыми актерами, судя по рейтингам и комментариям, так же высоко оценила публика.

После громкого успеха Маккензи появился в детском фильме «Кристофер Робин» и телевизионных проектах «Британия» и «Обитатели холмов». Передоверить руководство процессом и подчиняться директору съемочной группы в этот период стоило британцу значительных усилий и трудов.
