postscript 0 Report post Posted February 25 Well, he played Rudyard Kipling in 'The Man who would be King' and Wellington in 'Waterloo', so those are two real freemasons (albeit Wellington was initiated and never went back, I think). He played Sherlock Holmes in 'Murder by Decree', based on the anti-masonic conspiracy theory about Jack the Ripper, and Holmes was invented by freemason Arthur Conan Doyle (though not that story obviously). OK, I give up, who was the made-up freemason he played? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Martin 129 Report post Posted February 25 He played John Adams Gates Freemason/Knight Templar in National Treasure. PS I wouldn't personally count the Duke of Wellington as he had no liking of Freemasonry see: https://www.freemasonry.bcy.ca/biography/wellington_d/wellington.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
