Warner Oland

**Warner Oland** (3. oktobar 1879 – 6. august 1938), pravim imenom Johan Verner Olund, bio je američki kazališni i filmski glumac rodom iz Švedske, najpoznatiji po ulozi kineskog detektiva Charlieja Chana u popularnoj seriji hollywoodskih filmova 1930-ih.

Iz domovine je doselio u SAD kao tinejdžer, gdje se školovao za glumca, a 1906. je nastupao u trupi Ale Nazimove. Godine 1907. se oženio za dramsku spisateljicu Edith Gardener Sheran, uz čiju je pomoć preveo drame Augusta Strindberga na engleski jezik. S vremenom je, zbog njegovog egzotičnog "orijentalnog" izgleda, ali i nesklonosti hollywoodskih studija da zbog rasnih predrasuda uzimaju azijatske glumce, počeo tumačiti orijentalne likove u filmovima. Za ulogu Charlie Chana je, međutim, temeljito pripremao učeći kineski jezik i kaligrafiju. Iako ga je ona proslavila i donijela mu veliko bogatstvo, posljednje godine života mu je obilježio alkoholizam, koji je doveo do razvoda od supruge, zbog koje se vratio u domovinu. Umro je od upale pluća.
