The son of Joseph and Frances Owen, Reginald Owen studied at Sir Herbert Tree's Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and made his professional debut in 1905.
In 1911 he starred in the original production of Where the Rainbow Ends as Saint George which opened to very good reviews on 21 December 1911. Reginald Owen had a few years earlier met the author Mrs Clifford Mills as a young actor and it was he who on hearing her idea of a Rainbow Story persuaded her to turn it into a play and thus "Where the Rainbow Ends" was born.
Owen is perhaps best known today for his performance as Ebenezer Scrooge in the 1938 film version of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, a role he inherited from Lionel Barrymore, who had played the part of Scrooge on the radio every Christmas for years until Barrymore broke his hip in an accident.

The 1964 film Mary Poppins just had its age rating in the U.K ... The BBFC further stated that this word was used by ReginaldOwen’s AdmiralBoom when talking about the chimney sweep people, whose faces were covered in soot ... .

Not everything in Mary Poppins comes with a spoonful of sugar.Advertisement 2 ...Article content ... AdmiralBoom, a character played by ReginaldOwen who believes he is a naval commander in charge of a ship, uses the word twice in the film.Advertisement 3.
