Burn Hugh Gorman was born 1 September 1974 in England. An actor with a gift for playing antagonists and conflicted authority figures, Gorman built his reputation across television and film.

More recent credits include The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and Tim Burton's Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024), where he played Father Damien.
