Sean Pertwee was a prolific character actor, both in cinema and television, since launching his acting career in his 20s. Right out of college, Pertwee dived headfirst into show business in the early 1980s, earning recurring small screen roles right off the bat, most notably the crime drama "Chancer" (ITV 1990-91), starring Clive Owen. The English actor quickly became a mainstay in the dramas of science fiction, horror, and thriller, going on to star in films like "Event Horizon" (1997) and "Doomsday" (2008). Thirty years into a prosperous career, Pertwee joined the cast of blossoming Batman series "Gotham" (Fox 2014- ), portraying the iconic DC Comics fan favorite Alfred Pennyworth.
