Steven Brand

Scottish-born actor and director, Steven Brand has worked steadily since coming to America from the UK where he was establishing major credits in film, television, and theater. Watch him on the big screen in October 2023 when he stars opposite Tobin Bell and Shawnee Smith in Saw X, the newest installment of the incredibly popular horror franchise. As a director, Brand recently wrapped principal photography on the upcoming action, drama feature Joe Baby starring Ron Perlman, Harvey Keitel, Dichen Lachman and Willa Fitzgerald. But it is fans of video gaming who no doubt will catch him first in the highly anticipated Immortals of Aveum as the villainous Sandrakk, set for a July 2023 release. Brand can be seen on both Vikings Valhalla in the recurring role of 'Vitomir' and as 'Marsh Janowski' in Neil Gaiman's The Sandman story 24/7. Other notable past US and UK television credits include recurring roles on Teen Wolf (for which he earned a Saturn Award nomination), Mistresses, Samurai Girl, New Blood, Magic City, Alex Rider, Casualty, The Darling Buds of May, Psychos, Doctors, Hellsing and Point Pleasant. Guest starring roles include Hawaii 5-0, Castle, NCIS Los Angeles, CSI, CSI:Miami, Covert Affairs, 90210 and more. Blockbuster movie fans both loved and feared Brand in The Scorpion King when he burst onto the scene in his starring role as 'Memnon', the evil warlord and nemesis to 'Mathayus', played by Dwayne Johnson. He also starred opposite Steven Yeun and Samara Weaving in the film Mayhem, directed by Joe Lynch and in the Netflix political thriller The Same Sky, directed by Oscar winner Oliver Hirschbiegel (Downfall). At a young age, Brand and his family left Scotland and moved to East Africa where they lived in Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania for nine years. A visit to a drive-in theater in Kenya was his introduction to films. After a brief career in publishing, he turned his sights to the performing arts. Brand's first paid acting role saw him starring opposite Catherine Zeta-Jones in the enormously popular TV series The Darling Buds of May. He spent the next few years working in theater and television before moving to Los Angeles where he now resides. Keep watching for Steven Brand as he constantly proves himself to be a force to be reckoned with both in front of and behind the camera.
