Lawrence Bayne
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lawrence Bayne is a Canadian actor, born November 11, 1960 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He has appeared in various movies and television series, both live action and animated.
Among his live action characters, he is perhaps best known as Victor Pearson, the apparently nefarious scientist-next-door in the NBC/Discovery Kids television series Strange Days at Blake Holsey High, also known as Black Hole High. Victor was the father of the Science Club's Vaughn Pearson, and generally functioned as the series' antagonist. Victor used a frictionless Chi ball he stole from the show's protagonist, Josie Trent, as a power source for his mysterious experiments at Pearadyne Labs. His portrayal of Victor was low-key, fairly realistic.
Other characters portrayed include:
- Dr. Hypnoto, a broad, buffoonish villain on Silverstone, the show-within-a-show in the Disney Channel television series The Famous Jett Jackson
- an operative named Davenport in the third and fourth seasons of the La Femme Nikita television series
Among his animation credits, Bayne provided the voices of:
- Rock Zilla in Gene Simmons' animated television show My Dad the Rock Star
- Cable and other characters in the X-Men Animated Series
- Dr. Reed Crawley in Monster Force
- Nazmul in Di-Gata Defenders
Lawrence Bayne also sings with the band CONTROLFREAK.
