From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Jack O'Halloran is an American actor best known for his role as Non, the menacing-but-mute member of the trio of Kryptonian super-villains banished to the Phantom Zone in Superman: The Movie and inadvertently released, by the Man of Steel himself, in Superman II. O'Halloran once stated in an interview that it was his idea to make Non a very child-like character, having difficulty adjusting to his new-found powers and making sounds in the absence of voice. It is also believed that, as an American, O'Halloran was the "odd-man-out", teamed with Terence Stamp (General Zod) and Sarah Douglas (Ursa), whose British accents contributed to the menacing presence original director Richard Donner wanted for the Kryptonian outcasts. O'Halloran has also played supporting roles in King Kong (1976 and Dragnet (1987). O'Halloran lent his surname to Steve McQueen's character, San Francisco Fire Chief Mike O'Halloran, in the 1974 disaster film, The Towering Inferno.
