He is clearly depicted in the film as Irish, and this is the only 'in universe' source we have to draw a conclusion regarding nationality. Correction made, as such. undo Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit

In the film, he is played with a noticeably Irish accent (presumably under direction) by the actor, Max Von Sydow. undo Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

American audiences assumed - perhaps incorrectly - that Merrin was originally Irish, given Von Sydow's representation. This became the subject of numerous parodies, most famously in Scary Movie 2. I thought it worth mentioning. undo Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
