Stanley James Warmington (16 December 1884 – 10 May 1941), or just S. J. Warmington, was an English actor who appeared on film, stage, radio, and television in the early 20th century.
Warmington was born in Hertfordshire, England on 16 December 1884. Warmington studied for the stage at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art after working as a journalist. Beginning in the 1910s he appeared in numerous stage productions in West End theatre in London and Broadway theatre in New York. In 1919 Warmington landed his first cinematic role in the silent film Wisp o' the Woods and he went on to play supporting roles, typically a detective or police officer, in some of Alfred Hitchcock’s earliest films including Sabotage, The 39 Steps, The Man Who Knew Too Much, and Murder!. In the late 1930s Warmington gained national fame for playing the lead role in the BBC radio drama Inspector Hornleigh. In 1939 Warmington also acted in some of the earliest made-for-TV films.
