Glenn Quinn may be only 22 years old, but his acting spans the centuries -- and continents! Tune in Tuesdays to Roseanne and you'll catch him in Lanford, Illinois, (where the show is set!) playing Becky's love, Mark. Then, if ya return to the same channel just four days later, (ABC) you'll see fro yourself - someone's gone and sent him back in a time capsule! Hello! Welcome to the 14th Century medieval England, guys! On Covington Cross, Glenn plays temperamental Cedric, the younger son in a medieval British family, where he keeps busy dueling in sword fights with his feuding brothers. Playing both an American Teenager and an English one means making some major accent changes, but this comes naturally to Glenn, partly because he was born and raised in Ireland. (That explains his green-eyed, black haired, and fair-skinned good looks!) He moved to Los Angeles after graduating from Clonkeen College in Dublin, four years ago. When he first got here he watched a lot of TV and worked at imitating all different kinds of accents. Now he's a pro! Aside from two shows, Glenn starred with John Travolta and James (The Heights)Walters in the movie Shout, out last year. and you can also catch him in the upcoming Dr. Giggles, a horror thriller!
