The actor who starred as trusted butler Alfred Pennyworth in Tim Burton's "Batman" films (and the other two by Joel Schumacher) has died.
British actor Michael Gough's career spanned six decades and includes more than 100 films. Gough is best known in the United States for his role as Alfred, as well as his roles in Burton's "Sleepy Hollow," "Corpse Bride" and "Alice in Wonderland," but earned a cult following in the U.K. through frequent appearances in Hammer horror films and guest spots on popular Brit television series "The Avengers" and "Doctor Who."
Other notable credits include "Out of Africa," "A Christmas Carol" (1985), "The Boys from Brazil" and "Julius Caeser."
