Concerning his professional career, he changed his name to Terry O’Quinn, in reference to his Irish origins, and not to be confused with another actor already called Terrance Quinn. He made his first film appearance in Michael Cimino’s film “Heaven’s Gate” (1980), but didn’t rise to fame until 1987 and 1989, after landing roles in the two hit films “The Stepfather 1” and “The Stepfather 2” in which he played a serial killer. For the above mentioned role in the first film, the actor received nominations for Saturn and the Independent Spirit Awards. In 1994, he appeared as a guest star in the series “The Tales of the Crypt”, and straight afterwards he made three appearances in “The X-Files” (1995) series, each time playing a different role. From 1996 to 1999, O’Quinn portrayed Peter Watts in the crime drama series “Millennium” created by Chris Carter, and meantime he also created characters in the series “JAG” (1995 – 2002). His net worth was rising steadily.

Terrance Quinn Quotes

  • I’ve told the producers that I miss the old John Locke. I wish he hadn’t found those damn buttons sometimes. But these ups and downs reflect everybody’s. You can’t always choose the way things go. That’s life.
  • I don’t think I could play a character that I couldn’t relate to somehow. I’m not unfamiliar with frustration, anger, shame, helplessness and a load of other emotions that make up our psycho-soup. I try to focus on that frustration, that sense of unfairness, and multiply it.
  • I so rarely turned down a role, that I can’t say I have any regrets in that regard. There were many roles that I would rather not have done, but having a home and family requires that we sometimes do things we would rather not. I have done a few roles that I’ve never watched, and if I happen to be flicking through channels and one pops up, I quickly move on. It’s hard enough to sustain some self confidence without being reminded of things we’d rather not revisit but, in the end, it comes with the territory.
  • It looks like a camera on a stick. – when asked what the “monster” from Lost (2004) looks like.

Terrance Quinn Important Facts

  • Has English and Irish ancestry.
  • He is one of eleven children.
  • His brother Thomas Anthony Quinn is also an actor, who acts and teaches theatre in central Illinois.

  • In an episode of Lost (2004), his character Locke’s parents were played by Kevin Tighe and Swoosie Kurtz, who are both only eight years O’Quinn’s senior.

  • Has two sons: Oliver Quinn (b. 1984) and Hunter Quinn (b. 1986).
  • Is one of the few cast members of Lost (2004) who did not have to audition, because his former collaborator (from Alias (2001)) J.J. Abrams thought of O’Quinn for the part of Locke before the actor was even offered it.
  • Although always friendly onset, he keeps private and mysterious habits apart from his younger Lost (2004) co-stars, who often get together for wild parties when not shooting. He keeps this enigmatic aura so they will regard him similarly to the way they regard his mysterious character Locke.
