Biography[]
Born in Detroit, Michigan, Wagner made his screen debut in 1950 and soon became popular for his roles as suave characters in such films as Prince Valiant, White Feather and The Pink Panther, though he occasionally played villains, including in A Kiss Before Dying.
Following the 1970s, as well as appearing films like Towering Inferno and the Austin Powers series (as Number Two), Wagner made a move into television with such programmes as Hart to Hart and later Hustle and Two and a Half Men.
