Peter Ustinov was not listed as a cast member???


Did I miss something?

Under Peter Ustinov's acting credits, there's an entry for Jesus of Nazareth Part 1. But the Jesus of Nazareth cast list seems to lack him. It's probably caused by them using a partial cast list for one of the later parts, probably Part 3. Note that they also don't list Cyril Cusack or James Earl Jones, also from Part 1.

I didn't see Elizabeth Taylor listed, either! She played Elizabeth.

Nope - that was an Italian actress, Marina Berti.
