Jason Connery

Jason Connery had perhaps the toughest surname in showbusiness to live under, as the son of Sean Connery and Diane Cilento. To his credit, he carved his own identity, most memorably taking over the lead in Robin of Sherwood in 1986 after Michael Praed's character was killed off, which is a brutal handover to step into. I admire that he didn't just coast on the name, later moving behind the camera as a director. There's a quiet resilience in choosing a craft where every comparison is loaded against you. He's a working actor and filmmaker, which honestly is the harder, more respectable path.
