There was also that Stonewall General role he played in the 2003 war film “Gods and Generals” which he considers to be his best moments on the screen. Then in 2009, he played the villainous lead role as Colonel Quaritch in “Avatar”. A Tony Award nominee and a great stage actor, one of his best-known play roles was as a Colonel.

Why is Stephen so good at carrying the characters of military officers and bringing them to a badass life? He must have been in the military. Stephen Lang was born during the Korean Conflict and he came of age during the Vietnam madness. America joined the war in 1965 and when Lang became 18 in 1970, the war was at its peak. But Lang never served in Vietnam nor elsewhere.

He successfully plays the role of military generals just as actors play drug lords, and actors play criminals, and actors play prostitutes perfectly without ever contemplating any of this in real life. Stephen Lang is just good at what he does.

In December 2022, “Avatar 2” will hit the theatres. The film which will take part mostly underwater is set to hit new grounds. Filming began in 2017 but the COVID-19 pandemic throwing began bumps to the film’s already “long and arduous” production schedule.

Stephen Lang is making a return in the film. Also returning are Giovanni Ribisi, Joel David Moore, Sigourney Weaver, CCH Pounder, and Matt Gerald. Newcomers in the film include Kate Winslet, Edie Falco, Brendan Cowell, and Michelle Yeoh in live-action roles. Is Stephen Lang married?

They have remained married since then and are blessed with four kids. We have to quickly point out that they are no longer kids as the last child, called Noah, left Swarthmore College with a degree in 2010.

There is not much more known about the kids (since you insist on calling them that).

Does Stephen Lang have cancer?

Stephen Lang is heading to his seventies. And according to Cancer Facts, 77 percent of cancer patients are 55 years old and above. Being in this demographic doesn’t make Lang a cancer patient, not even the fact that more than half a million Americans die of cancer per year. Stephen Lang doesn’t have cancer.

But people ask if Lang has cancer because he was involved in conjunction with LUNGevity Foundation to create awareness for lung cancer, one of the top two or three killer forms of cancer.

When people break their necks, they get involved with foundations that champion the causes of paralytics and spinal cord patients. When people fall in love with wild animal rearers, they become involved with fighting for animal rights and promoting their causes.

Not so with Mr. Lang who, starting in 2014, champions the cause for the awareness, prevention, and control of lung cancer just out of his free good heart.
