Gorlim is the youngest member of Barahir's band. He joined the outlaws after the Dagor Bragollach to go back to Dorthonion to search for his missing wife Eilinel, who was not found among the refugees. Her body was never found after the battle, either. Gorlim serves as a foil for Beren. They are both highly motivated to remain in Dorthonion until ALL of their people are rescued, but Gorlim's motivation is specific to finding his wife. In the end, he's willing to risk everyone's life for the chance to save hers. His story is one of young love that gives way to despair in the aftermath of a tragedy. He appears to Beren as a regretful ghost, as well.

Gorlim is a member of the House of Bëor, but not directly/closely related to any other members of Barahir's band.

Percy Hynes White plays a tortured-artist-type student in Tim Burton's Wednesday TV show (ie, Wednesday Addams goes to boarding school with magical creatures and solves mysteries). I think he will look nothing like Beren, and come across as sympathetic enough for the audience to understand (though not excuse) his betrayal. He'll make a great ghost!

Age: 26
Height: 5'5"

Roles: MCU Spider-Man films

In the MCU Spider-Man films, Tony portrays a 'you love to hate him figure'. He begins as ostensible bully but we grow to see vulnerability. Tony could really paint Gorlim as a complex character so the audience could be left unsure how we feel about him, whether he understood the weight of his actions. I think that ability to be morally ambiguous is really intriguing for this role. The knowing pain in his eyes when he fails.

Got a lot of mileage playing the lovable bad boy Nick in The Good Witch.
