Born Maurice Micklewhite in London, he acted in repertory theatre and small television roles with the stage name Michael Caine. He came to prominence in 1964 as Lieutenant Bromhead in Zulu (1964).

His most memorable roles include spy Harry Palmer in The Ipcress File (1965), the title role in Alfie (1966) and Charlie Croker in The Italian Job (1969). Caine has made more than a hundred films, and was nominated for an Oscar for Educating Rita (1983) and twice won Best Supporting Actor for Hannah and her Sisters (1986) and The Cider House Rules (2000). He was knighted in 2000.
