'Fair Game': Actor Alan Cumming Actor Alan Cumming has portrayed characters from works by Stan Lee, William Shakespeare, and Kander and Ebb. Now, he adds L. Frank Baum to that list, with his new role in "Tin Man," the Sci-Fi channel's re-imagining of the Wizard of Oz.
Alan Cumming has played a variety of eclectic roles? from Hamlet, to the iconic MC in Cabaret, to a teleporting mutant named Nightcrawler in X2. And he was once described as "a frolicky pan-sexual sex symbol for the new millennium." His current project takes him farther over the rainbow than ever before: Tin Man is a re-imagining of The Wizard of Oz. In it he plays Glitch, a man missing half his brain. The three part, six-hour mini-series premieres December 2 on Sci-Fi.
