Maxton Gig Beesley Jr. was born into the family of jazz drummer Maxton Beesley Sr. and jazz singer, whom fans knew as Chris Marlowe. The second name Gig Maxton Jr. received in honor of actor Gig Young, with whom his father was familiar.
Beasley Jr.’s career also began with musical performances. Naturally, he followed in his father's footsteps. Maston Jr. studied music at Chetham School, sang at Manchester Cathedral, mastered percussion instruments at Guildhall School. He performed with Take That and Paul Weller and accompanied Robbie Williams at Hydepark. He toured with Incognito jazz for a long time. Then I decided that it was time to do something more serious, for example, cinema and seriously thought about the career of a film actor.
His first film role made Max Beasley famous. He played the main role in the television series “The Story of Tom Jones Found” based on the book of the same name.
For several years he starred in various roles in film studios in the United States and England.
Film "Shine" , released in 2001, added to his fame, but already undesirable. The film, as they say, failed, critics did not spare him pejorative epithets, and the audience “voted with their feet”, leaving the session, and Mac Beasley was nominated for a very dubious award – the worst male supporting role in “Golden Raspberry”.
In the UK, Mac Beasley starred in the BBC Three medical drama for a long time, and became its star, for two years from 2006 to 2008 he played a role in the TV series Hotel Babylon. In late 2006, Beasley had to rethink his pianist skills. He was invited to accompany James Brown during his performances at the Roundhouse in London. One of the last roles of Maxton Beasley was in the drama film Reckoning on ITV1. In addition, he voices commercials on television, acts as a voice-over, makes DVD reviews. /
