Terence Henry Stamp (July 22, 1938 – August 17, 2025) was an English actor. After training at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in London he started his acting career in 1962. He has been referred to as the “master of the brooding silence” by The Guardian. His performance in the title role of Billy Budd, his film debut, earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor and a BAFTA nomination for Best Newcomer. Associated with the Swinging London scene of the 1960s – during which time he was in high-profile relationships with actress Julie Christie and supermodel Jean Shrimpton – Stamp was among the subjects photographed by David Bailey for a set titled Box of Pin-Ups. Stamp played butterfly collector Freddie Clegg in The Collector (1965), and in 1967 appeared in Far from the Madding Crowd, starring opposite Christie. His other major roles include playing archvillain General Zod in Superman and Superman II, tough guy Wilson in The Limey, Supreme Chancellor Valorum in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, transgender woman Bernadette Bassinger in The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, ghost antagonist Ramsley in The Haunted Mansion, Stick in Elektra, Pekwarsky in Wanted, Siegfried in Get Smart, Terrence Bundley in Yes Man, the Prophet of Truth in Halo 3, Mankar Camoran in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and General Ludwig Beck in Valkyrie. He has appeared in two Tim Burton films, Big Eyes (2014) and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016).
En el condado de Garner, donde está prohibido hablar del "año de gracia", las niñas crecen convencidas de que al alcanzar la adolescencia su piel exhala una potente esencia de juventud que, gracias a sus poderes afrodisíacos, es capaz de seducir a los hombres y matar de celos a las mujeres. A fin de purificar esa magia sin dañar a nadie y poder regresar a casa listas para el matrimonio, las adolescentes son expulsadas del lugar y confinadas en plena naturaleza durante un año. Sin embargo, no todas vuelven... Aunque en el condado de Garner están prohibidos los sueños y cualquier cosa que pueda ofrecer privacidad y esperanza a las chicas, Tierney James, una joven de dieciséis años que está a punto de tener que cumplir su año de gracia y anhela una sociedad libre de disputas entre amigos y entre mujeres, descubrirá que el mayor peligro que deben enfrentar las adolescentes en su situación no radica en la naturaleza salvaje ni en los elementos, ni siquiera en los cazadores furtivos que se dedican a secuestrarlas para hacer una pequeña fortuna en el mercado negro, sino en la rivalidad y el enfrentamiento entre ellas.
