Charles McKeown is a British actor and writer. McKeown wrote part of the screenplay for Batman. He rewrote many of the final scenes set in the belfry along with Jonathan Gems, since the American screenwriter Warren Skaaren wass not in London at the time when Jon Peters decided to change the belfry section of the movie.

He wasn't credited for his work on Batman and this decision was considered unfair by director Tim Burton.

McKeown is best known for his collaborations with Terry Gilliam, for which he wrote films like Brazil, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.

As an actor he has worked numerous times with some of the members of the Monty Python group, in particular with Michael Palin, Terry Jones, John Cleese and, of course, Terry Gilliam. He had roles in Time Bandits, Brazil, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen and Erik the Viking.
