Nigel De Brulier (8 July 1877 - 30 January 1948), born Francis George Packer, was an English film actor, born in Bristol, Gloucestershire, who launched his career in the theatre stage in his native country and transferred to films after moving to the USA. His first film role was a poet in ''The Pursuit of the Phantom'' in 1914. In 1915 he acted in the film ''Ghosts'' based on a play by Henrik Ibsen. Nigel De Brulier acted Cardinal Richelieu in the four films: ''The Three Musketeers'' (1921), ''The Iron Mask'' (1929), ''The Three Musketeers'' (1935) and ''The Man in the Iron Mask'' (1939). De Brulier appeared with Douglas Fairbanks in ''The Gaucho'' (1927) and was also one of the few actors of the silent era who reached reasonable success in talkies, although his roles in them were quite minor. He played the wizard Shazam in the 1941 Republic serial ''Adventures of Captain Marvel'' and also acted in ''Charlie Chan in Egypt'' in 1935. He played Jokaanan, the Prophet in a silent film version of Oscar Wilde's ''Salome'' (1923). A clip of De Brulier in ''Salomé'' was used in ''Before Stonewall'', a film documenting the gay rights movement〔.
