Daily BirthdaysWayne Pygram
Wayne Pygram (born October 13, 1959 in Cootamundra, New South Wales) is an Australian actor best known for his role as Scorpius in the science fiction series Farscape (2001 — 2003).
Before acting in films and television, he was a regular on the Australian theatre circuit. In 2005, he made a brief cameo in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith as Grand Moff Tarkin at a young age, because of his similarity to Peter Cushing. Cushing portrayed the same character 28 years previously, in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Interestingly, Pygram is 6'1 while Cushing was 5'8.
Pygram also plays the drums in a band named Signal Room along with his co-star in Farscape, Anthony Simcoe.
