Alpay is probably best known for his role as Mark Smeaton in Showtime&amp;#039;s former historical series The Tudors. His other credits include guest appearances in shows including Rizzoli &amp;amp; Isles, Fairly Legal and Dollhouse. He recently appeared in the Fox pilot Weekends At Bellevue, but the project was not picked up. The Borgias, which was renewed for a second season in April, is expected to return to the US next year.
