Burn Gorman in Penelope

[potatosalads88]

The accent is a bit weird on burn...I thought it would be a bit more convincing seeing as he was born in America

[EleventhDoctorCece]

Interesting American accent, I still love him though and he's so hot !!!!! <3

[RazzleDrazzle]

His voice is great!

[GleekHere]

OMG that was sooooooooooo weird im usually watching him in torchwood so its so weird hearing that accent!!!! :)

[AfroAnnie]

Hey, wasn't that Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) in the last bit?

[PervyMari]

I don't know what it is about him, but he's fucking sexy. He looks...rare, if that makes any sense

[Bordicci]

owen harper does not suit an american accent!

[banana2cake2]

I watched this movie a few weeks ago for James Mcavoy, started watching Torchwood a couple days ago, love Burn, then discovered he was in this! This happens to me so much. I'll watch a movie for one actor, and then several weeks later watch some show and like an actor only to discover he was in the movie I'd recently watched. EPIC.

[Flannybabes]

OMG it's Bingley off of P&P.

[ItsEmmalicious]

i just found out hes from la & moved to london when he was 7! hahah thats not actually too bad, at least when he speaks with his normal accent he doesnt have those american slip ups like jphn barrowman(he says some of his words with more of a scottishy accent some times) lol

[katyanarockercook]

Bahahahaha he's so nasal :') I love him so much what a legend :D

[dancingfreak94]

Burn Gorman as an American. Omg he's so high pitched!

[wittlebaybee]

I saw this film and my mouth dropped open when I saw Burn Gorman. I wasn't sure it was actually him and I can't find any billing for him for the movie anywhere (does that make sense?).

[KatMEW15]

wow, this is so odd. i mean cool but odd to especially when you're used to Burn being a Londoner in Torchwood. proves he's talented though :) xx

[Jules14x]

Burn Gorman is BRILLIANT in Martina Cole's The Runaway..look it up!

[SuperboyXX0018]

Cast in The Dark Knight Rises! Should be playing a minor supporting villain.

[rubberduckiesquack]

His english accent sounds better. Its weird cause he seems to always have a permanent frown on his face. anyways, i need to see this movie again

[3EMDEE]

holy crap! listen to that accent! no wonder I didn't recognize him!

[hidenseeker424]

Not a fan of the accent, but YAAAAAY BURN GORMAN!

[CravenHellsing]

Lol...he sounds so silly....something i've noticed, when a brit or a scot tries to fake an American accent, they get EXTREMELY nasely...that last bit sounds like he is holding his nose while he says it...

[DC11961]

@actorman1 I'd beg to differ. His best performance was his last episode on the show "Torchwood". I don't know about you, but when you've got to film a VERY emotional scene, that you've barely rehearsed it with the others actors because it is so emotional and intense, in one take, wouldn't you make it the performance of a lifetime. Perhaps you may not have seen it and are basing your comment on his other projects but I'm just saying.

[actorman1]

Burn Gorman with a very bad American accent. Come to think of it, when he's not playing a heavy, he's pretty mediochre as an actor, too. Very much a typecast actor

[actorman1]

Burn Gorman with a very bad American accent. He's not that good an actor, either. His best parts have been as a nasty man, but then that is closer to the real man.

[JamesBourneIzMyMan]

I love Burn Gorman!!

[FlippinBooks]

WHY must all these awesome British people suppress their accents in movies? Burn Gorman AND James McAvoy both have adorable accents in real life. Why on earth should they have to hide them?

*huffs for a while, then goes to watch Burn in 'Bleak House'*

[Simpuramafampark]

I LOVE Burn's accent.

[FlippinBooks]

I know, right? It's not upper-class or "proper", but it's so adorable.

[Simpuramafampark]

lol his voice... weird new york/stuffed up nose meld

[lizilizi1]

@Simpuramafampark I think it's supposed to be kind of "nerdy", like in the TW episode with the memory-changing alien.

[Hikaru0love]

O_______o;;;;;;;;

Officially weirded out.

[erikssiren]

What is up with his voice? I must have made it nasal on purpose, maybe it helped him get the American accent right? I don't know. It was so weird.

[bustthewave]

wait that's supposed to be an American accent? :P

[marthavell]

Ironic that he is American

[genericusername337]

His accent is a bit odd, doesn't sound too real. But that's because I'm used to his Owen Harper voice. When I watched Penelope for the first time I don't think I suspected anything.

I like his original better anyway. What was wrong with his real voice?

[JBgirl77]

omg an american accent noo his british accent is what makes him sexy!!!

[lizilizi1]

@JBgirl77 Well, not the ONLY thing, but yeah.

[pinkhottie23]

OMG NOOO at 1:00 his voice! PLEASE BURN GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL ACCEnt

[rava67]

OMG ... worst "American" accents EVER!

[SCARlovesMAGGOT]

How did I just now realize it was him? XD The accent... omg. XD

[pasoet25]

its sooo odd to hear him in this when ur used to how he sounds in like Torchwood. That accent threw me off for a bit when I saw the movie. Had to rewind and be like... OH SNAP it IS him.

[Minireb123]

He sounds really weird with his American accent.

[xlanoyax]

his accent sounds.... really weird

[Wexsie]

He sounds so different!

[McDalek]

oh god that's terrifying! XD I'm so used to Burn with his normal accent from Torchwood.. oh wow. that was scary lol. Definately fits the character though haha.

[fight4acause]

he is originally from the U.S. which is funny and John Barrowman is from Scotland but grew up in the U.S.

[McDalek]

lol yeah I know. But I hadn't heard Burn do an American accent accent before, soo yeah.

[abi2708]

oh dear amymayhxo :/

[amymayhxo]

I love the accent!

It's so funny - he really sounds like a sleazy journalist.

[scissorhandslove9]

The accent seems to make his voice go a tad bit higher in pitch :D

I don't even remember him in this movie...weird.

[blingdaleks]

Oh my god it sounds so weird

He was born in America though, wasn't he? Maybe this is how he sounded when he was young :/

[TwonkerKim]

his american accent is actually ok LOL but he was born in LA so i guess he would know how to do it pretty well lol...still prefer the cockney accent tho!

[icecoldrita]

It's not perfect, but it's not great. I didn't know he was born in LA! Still, I know a girl born in England and raised in Mass. but can't for the life of her do an English accent, not that that stops her from trying. Much to the dismay of her English boyfriend...

[Megazord5]

@icecoldrita I think we might just be used to his english accent from Torchwood and this one is such a difference, but its not bad.

[dozyjoezy]

:L lmao the american accent makes me laugh! xx

[shnadle]

He's really hot, but wierdly kinda looks like my philosophy teacher

[SophiePierce15]

sounds so funny with a american accent doesnt suit him lol :P xx

[xxBCDLSxx]

Wow. His american accent is pretty nasally. It sounds funny coming out of his mouth though. Man is definately a londoner and that's the way I love 'im. :)

[adoretorchwood]

aha. Yupp.

he's a londonerr right?

LOL at american.

i adore burn

fit ass.

[Wayoming]

I LOVE BURN GORMAN

:):)<3

Fun accent :P

I'm gonna watch this now, just to see him :P

K, i'm gonna go watch Bleak House now :D

[AlansAngel555]

He needs to stick to his normal accent lol that was diffrent

[mariahCareyPortugal]

american accent? cool

it's a change from TW but i still prefer the british accent

he's hot hot hot definitly

(can he go beck to torchwood please??????) the third series won't be the same without him because he brought that sexiness to the show. love him and miss him already.

no matter what he does from now on, he'll always be linked to Torchwood. we can't help it. RIP

[bexcy99]

Lol he's kind of squeaky American.

Still love him tho :]

[strawberrystrumpet]

Seriously squeaky! XD I Love Burn Gorman, but I was seriously dying. Still did a good job, though. :D

[boysarefun]

still is pretty fucking hot.

[BUMCHEESEPARTY]

when i saw him i was like *squee!* he sounds funny with an american accent but i like it ;)

[torchwoodmad08]

he sounds more sexy with an english accent ubt he sounds cool with an american one.

[FireofSekhmet]

Wow, he sounds a lot more nasally with that American accent. =P

[xoxRaz]

OMG! Yay!!

But what happened to his cocknry from TW? Owen had a much cooler accent :L

Still - Burn Gorman! Yay! I thought this film looked sucky but i'm so watching it now :P Then more TW so i can here his good voice again :P

[Kasskat]

Oh my God.

He's AMERICAN.

If he did have a bigger part, I would probably buy the DVD...

[morethansalt]

Love Burn, terrible nasal 'accent', though. I'll be watching this with the sound off.

[Robynowitz]

oh my god! I love it!

[Arabhaki]

Oh. My. God.

Quick, Burn! Say something British-y!

[Clary14rockz]

I love him!! lol. Loving the accent!! lol.

[chika575]

I wish he had A WAY BIGGER part and that he didn't have to have an america accent

[harleyquinn16]

i love owen lol

[RammsteinTorchwood]

burn!!!

he's on bonekickers next week - cant wait!!

[shadowbarrowman]

OFMG HIS ..... HIS ACCENT!! OMG so hit though., right? X333 AMERiCAN BURN FUCKING GORMAN!! X333

[coffeegirl18]

It sounds rather unnatural. At the end it sounds more natural.

[coffeegirl18]

The accent kills me.

[dewocket]

Burn has the most amazing eyes...

[Rainstarhasastick]

Burn sounds funny with an American accent. =P He's pretty good for who he is though.

[pethead17]

nice accent burn!

[zXGoalieXz]

MR. BINGLY!

[hamster3093]

Lol he's adorable <3 Much prefer his actual accent though :P Just think... if he'd stayed in America he'd actually have an American accent :P

[trytofly]

I SQUEALED so hard when I saw him. And no one else in the theater understood. XD

[evemylestorchwood]

same here. i got a few strange glances and some of my pop corn went flying.

[csmars]

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!! fake american accent! he sounds so funny! But you can tell it's his real voice when he slips sometimes! lol

[Tullz90]

when he walked through that police door i instantly recognised him and practically squealed with glee. lol

i love him, love him, love him :]

torchwood, bleak house and even here with the cheesy American accent!

[scoutingforlove]

cheesy american accent

[HeartPrism]

Ahahaha, what an accent.

I love Burn (L)

[marykeith47]

ROFL. Trying to do a New York accent. Aw, bless. Love him though.

[FletcherPoynterLove]

NOOOOO.

his voice scares me ahaaa.

bless him.

[909red]

He sounds dubbed. Is that even his voice?

[SirixRemyxLover]

Yeah, but it's a really bad attempt at an American Accent. I still love it though.

[BarrowmanLuvva]

I Love Burn In Torchwood...But I Love John More! :)

[anglodaisy]

Simon Woods and Catherine O'Hara were both really funny in this...James McAvoy was to die for!

[alotofmillion]

Yep. Still think he sounds like he's on helium.
