Notably, he secured the Trailblazer award at the Edinburgh International Film Festival in 2009 and is renowned for his roles of SAS Captain in London Has Fallen and Dolokhov in Outpost: Rise of the Spetsnaz. Born in Glasgow, Larkin was raised in East Kilbride, Scotland. His career in filmmaking began with the premiere of his first short film, Reflections of a Life, at the Sundance Film Festival in 2004.

Larkin’s acting career is distinguished by his ability to portray both vulnerable and tough characters, adding depth and complexity to roles. His significant parts include guest roles in Scottish TV shows like Taggart, Rebus, and River City and key roles in the films Running in Traffic and The Red Machine.
