Kevin Trainor is an Irish actor from Kilkeel, County Down, Northern Ireland. He attended St Colman's College in Newry before going up to Emmanuel College, Cambridge, where he read English. After Cambridge, Trainor trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art from 2001 to 2004 (making an early cameo appearance in the 2001 film The Hole) and appeared in the 2005 Royal Shakespeare Company season.
He is notable for portraying the younger version of Trevor Bruttenholm (played as an older man by John Hurt) in the film Hellboy; as the character John in The Catherine Tate Show (from the "Ulster Mum" series of sketches); as Charles Adams in the HBO miniseries John Adams; and as living statue Keiran Barker in Sky 1 television comedy drama The Cafe.
Trainor most recently earned critical accolades for his appearance in the special flash-back episode that launched the 2014 second series of Channel 4's Utopia. His performance as Mr Omida, an immaculate and punctillious torturer, was described by Metro as "the most chilling torturer committed to screen in a long time" and by Geeks Unleashed as "the very neat, precise and sinister Mr Omida, who wins the creepiest man alive award".

In 1944, the Nazis build a dimensional portal off the coast of Scotland. With the help of Russian mystic Grigori Rasputin, they intend to free the Ogdru Jahad—monstrous entities imprisoned in deep space—to aid them in defeating the Allies. Rasputin knows this will be an apocalyptic event that he believes will create a paradise. He opens the portal with the aid of his disciples, Ilsa von Haupstein and Obersturmbannführer Karl Ruprecht Kroenen, member of the Thule Society and Adolf Hitler's top assassin. An Allied team is sent to destroy the portal, guided by young Trevor Bruttenholm, who is well-versed in the occult. The German team is killed and the portal is destroyed—in the process absorbing Rasputin—while Haupstein and Kroenen escape. The Allied team discovers that an infant demon with a right hand of stone came through the portal; they dub him "Hellboy" and Bruttenholm adopts him.
