Jonathan Pryce, CBE (born June 1, 1947) is a Welsh stage and film actor and singer. He earned an Academy Award nomination for his performance in the 2019 film "The Two Popes." After studying at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and meeting his long time partner, English actress Kate Fahy, in 1974, he began his career as a stage actor in the 1970s. His work in theatre, including an award-winning performance in the title role of the Royal Court Theatre's "Hamlet", led to several supporting roles in film and television. He made his breakthrough screen performance in Terry Gilliam's 1985 cult film "Brazil". Critically lauded for his versatility, Pryce has participated in big-budget films such as "Evita", "Tomorrow Never Dies", "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "The New World", as well as independent projects such as "Glengarry Glen Ross" and "Carrington". His career in theatre has also been prolific, and he has won two Tony Awards—the first in 1977 for his Broadway debut in "Comedians", the second for his 1991 role as "The Engineer" in the musical "Miss Saigon".

Set in 1793, The Council follows a French man named Louis de Richet, who, in search of his recently-missing mother Sarah, the head of the French branch of a secret society known as the Golden Order, arrives on an elusive island near the coast of England where various influential political figures from Europe and the United States are gathering for a mysterious purpose. The game combines fictional characters with real-life figures such as George Washington, Napoléon Bonaparte and Manuel Godoy, all of whom appear as key characters, and also heavily features real-life paintings, books and sculptures as part of its setting and puzzles.
