Peter Lupus Acting Career
Lupus played Willy Armitage in the original Mission: Impossible TV series in the 1960s. Armitage was the muscle man of the Impossible Missions Force and featured in almost every episode of the series. Willy Armitage ‘s character was a strong, silent type, usually with very little dialogue. Late in the show, during season five, the producers decided that his character was superfluous and that he had dropped to recurring status, appearing in a little over half of that season’s episodes. Fans’ outcry and lack of success in finding a substitute for his character resulted in his coming back to regular status the following season and his playing a greater role in the story, often assuming disguises as a convict or a murderer. Only Lupus and Greg Morris played regular roles throughout the show, although Morris appeared in more episodes.
Lupus’ other television work included a guest spot like Tarzan on Jack Benny ‘s TV show a boxer with a glass jaw on The Joey Bishop Show, a caveman on the Fantasy Island episode, and the recurring role of Detective Norberg on the short-lived Police Squad! sitcom.
