Biography |
Daniel Richard Goddard was born in Sydney, Australia on
August 28, 1971. He had nearly completed a degree in finance
when he dropped from the University and transferred to the
Ensemble Actors Studio. After several theatrical
appearances, Goddard landed his first television role in the
soap opera Home and Away as the bad boy Eric Phillips. In
this role, he arrived on the European scene as a major
heartthrob.
Daniel then departed Australia for the lights of Hollywood,
where he was unknown, despite his previous soap fame. During
the period he was establishing himself in Hollywood, Daniel
modeled for Calvin Klein and Dolce & Gabbana. Finally, the
young actor landed the lead role of Dar on the Beastmaster
television series and returned to his native country,
Australia, to film the series.
To date, the Beastmaster television series remains Daniel
Goddard's major work and claim to fame. His gentle, easily
recognizable face is burned into the memories of Beastmaster
fans everywhere and likely will follow him for the rest of
his life. Since the end of the Beastmaster series in 2002,
Daniel Goddard has only had two television appearances,
appearing in one episode of the television series, Monk, and
one episode of the series, Wildcard, both in 2004.
Daniel Goddard has only one film credit, appearing in a
post-apocalyptic movie called Dream Warrior (2004),
apparently filmed in 2003, but not yet released by the
studio. Mr. Goddard also filmed an anti-drug commercial in
2000. |
