After leaving RADA in 1961, he changed his first name to Inigo believing that his birth name of Anthony Michael Jackson was too mundane sounding for a show business career.{{Cite web|url=https://www.rada.ac.uk/profiles/inigo-jackson/|title=Inigo Jackson — RADA|website=www.rada.ac.uk}}

One of his earliest film roles was that of Robert de Beaumont in Becket (1964).
