Classify James Cosmo

[The Blade]

Scottish actor often playing in historical movies. I classify him as Kelto-Brunn.

Yeah, KB, I thought this was roger ward from mad max, he could be his brother.

[Davystayn]

This guy is a legend, in so many historical films, so perfect for those roles, he couldnt be anything else apart from Scottish

Agree kelto brunn but brunn very strong

I agree about his films but do you seriously find him unpassable in England, Ireland, Wales, Iceland and Norway, for instance?

[Davystayn]

Maybe he could pass in the rest of the Isles yes, it is that brunn plus norse component he seems to have that maybe makes him stand out as a Scot, either that or just used to seeing him in his roles so much!

I guess he passes in Iceland, Norway though wouldnt be knowledgeable to say for sure.

Does he also pass in continental Europe, say the Netherlands, Germany etc, as well?

I think he could pass as Danish too.

Well, I asked for your opinion because I've seen his phenotype (even with Brunn dominating as his case is) among the people of Ireland, England and Wales as well (as well as some Icelanders, Norwegians, Dutch and French posted on this board).

He could pass as Scottish, Danish or English and he kind of looks SouthEast Scottish to me but it is 2020 and people are free to travel around so saying that is a bit nonsensical. I would not say his look is super typical of Scots , like Davy Stayn seems to be saying, but I'd say 10% of Scots look like him and I do think he looks kind of Anglo-Saxon rather than kelto-brunn or NorthEast Scottish Tronder-Norse.

[Oliver109]

Eastern British type, you get quite a few men in Essex who look like that as well.

passes as atypical.
actually reminds me on some family members from my girlfriend on this pic (in other pics too much cm). Her mother looked also a bit like Annie Lennox when young.

Agree with Davystayn that it's hard to imagine him as anything other than Scottish, and not because he was in Braveheart. As for classification I guess Kelto-Brunn fits.
