==Life and career==
Eric Godon studied Germanic Philology in Brussels, and was once a member of the Belgian Junior national basketball team. He practiced various professions before embarking on a career as an actor at the age of 42. He is largely self-taught, and is well versed in improvisation.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ericgodon.com/biography|title=Eric Godon /// Biography|website=www.ericgodon.com}}</ref>

He speaks many languages, which have proven useful in his international acting career. In addition to his native language ([[French language|French]]), he is fluent in [[Dutch language|Dutch]], [[Flemish language|Flemish]], [[English language|English]] and [[German language|German]], and is also reasonable in [[Spanish language|Spanish]], [[Italian language|Italian]] and [[Russian language|Russian]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.e-talenta.eu/|title=e-TALENTA|website=www.e-talenta.eu}}</ref>

He is pursuing an international career. After ''[[Fishing Without Nets (2014 film)|Fishing Without Nets]]'', an American independent film by [[Cutter Hodierne]] shot in Kenya, he played the character of mayor Georges Deloix in the first series of the BBC drama ''[[The Missing (British TV series)|The Missing]]''. In 2015, he appeared alongside [[Sean Bean]] in the recurring role of older Ivanenko in the TNT series ''[[Legends (TV series)|Legends]]'', an American TV series produced by Fox 21 for the [[TNT (American TV network)|TNT]] network. More recently, he played in Luc Besson's movie ''[[Anna (2019 feature film)|Anna]]''..
He's been recently playing in Italian, French, Belgian, British, Finnish, Serbian, German, Swedish, Mexican and Spanish productions, in various languages (Italian, Spanish, German, English, Flemish and French)

Eric Godon (born 7 February 1959) is a Belgian character actor, director and writer.[1][2] Recognisable by his burly appearance and deep voice, he is perhaps best known in English language circles, for his roles in In Bruges, and The Missing.

Life and career

Eric Godon studied Germanic Philology in Brussels, and was once a member of the Belgian Junior national basketball team. He practiced various professions before embarking on a career as an actor at the age of 42. He is largely self-taught, and is well versed in improvisation.[3]

He speaks many languages, which have proven useful in his international acting career. In addition to his native language (French), he is fluent in Dutch, Flemish, English and German, and is also reasonable in Spanish, Italian and Russian.[4]

He is pursuing an international career. After Fishing Without Nets, an American independent film by Cutter Hodierne shot in Kenya, he played the character of mayor Georges Deloix in the first series of the BBC drama The Missing. In 2015, he appeared alongside Sean Bean in the recurring role of older Ivanenko in the TNT series Legends, an American TV series produced by Fox 21 for the TNT network. More recently, he played in Luc Besson's movie Anna.. He's been recently playing in Italian, French, Belgian, British, Finnish, Serbian, German, Swedish, Mexican and Spanish productions, in various languages (Italian, Spanish, German, English, Flemish and French)
