Chris Sarandon plays the smarmy, scheming Prince Humperdinck, who swoops in to steal Buttercup’s hand in marriage when she believes Westley is dead. Far from romantic, Humperdinck’s desire for Buttercup is all a PR stunt: He arranges the Princess Bride’s kidnapping in order to trick his subjects into waging war against a neighboring kingdom. Sneaky! Sarandon – who’s the ex-husband of actress Susan Sarandon – had previously gained fame for playing Al Pacino’s transsexual wife in “Dog Day Afternoon.” He’s also the voice of Jack Skellington in “The Nightmare Before Christmas,” and has made many appearances on Broadway, most recently in “The Light in the Piazza” and “Cyrano de Bergerac.”
