Ian Champion

Hi! I'm a classically trained screen and stage actor, as well as a very busy and versatile voice actor (with over 3500 VO credits including 10+ video games).
Most recently I played the evil cult leader Father Saxon in the horror feature film 'Sacrilege' (due out at UK Cineworld cinemas in March 2020).
I'm often cast as authoritative, high-status individuals with an imposing gravitas. I'm utterly fearless when it comes to playing the darker sides of human nature without judgement, hence my love of the horror and fantasy genre, and a flair for dark subtlety in character choices . I love to give writer/directors more than they expected on the page yet with immense respect for the text. But rest assured, I'm very friendly with a good sense of humour in real life!
My TV credits include many appearances on British TV dramas such as an occasionally recurring DI Spencer in 'Coronation Street', high-profile brand comedy TV commercials. and BBC Radio 4 drama.
I am semi-fluent in Italian and have convincing facility with French and German scripted dialogue. I also do three American accents (standard newsreader RP/New York and Texan)
I trained for three years at East 15, and at ALRA in screen acting.
