Jonathan Coyne (born 1 January 1953) is an English actor known for playing Warden Edwin James on Fox's short-lived series, Alcatraz (2012).[1] He also appeared as Dr. Lydgate in Once Upon a Time in Wonderland and Once Upon a Time[2] and recurred as George de Mohrenschildt in 11.22.63.

Early life and education

Coyne's earliest performances were in school plays. He played The Judge in Howard Barker's Hang of the Gaol and Phaeton in Ovid's Chariot of the Sun. When his performances received positive reviews in the national press, he decided to pursue an acting career.[3] He won a place at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and upon his graduation, he received the Hannam Clarke Award.[4]

Career

His first role on TV was on an episode of London's Burning in 1990. His next big role was in the mini-series Gulliver's Travels, starring Ted Danson. He appeared in many British TV series over the next few years, including guest appearances on EastEnders, Pulling and The Bill. In 2003, he was cast in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider – The Cradle of Life. In 2010, he was cast in The Nutcracker in 3D.[5]

His biggest role to date was as Warden Edwin James on Alcatraz. He was later cast in Would You Rather and London Boulevard. In 2013, he was cast in the supporting film roles of a henchman in Gangster Squad, and the right-hand man of John Goodman's character in The Hangover Part III.[6]

In 2018, he appeared in the third season of the AMC television series Preacher, in the recurring role of Allfather D'Daronique, which required him to wear a fatsuit.
