Chris Mulkey

Chris Mulkey (født 1948) er en amerikansk skuespiller kjent fra tv-serien Twin Peaks.

Mulkey har hatt få fremtredener roller, men har i løpet av karrieren medvirket i over 260 film- og TV-produksjoner.

 Karriere 
Mulkey filmdebuterte i 1976 med hovedrollen i de to relativt ukjente lavbudsjettfilmene Deadbeat og Loose Ends. Året etter hadde han to gjesteopptredener i den amerikanske krimserien Baretta. Han har etter det hatt et uttall biroller på film og gjesteopptredener i diverse TV-serier. I 1982 spilte han rollen som en av sheriff Teasles menn (Brian Dennehy) i den kjente actionfilmen First Blood, med Sylvester Stallone i hovedrollen. Resten av 1980-tallet fulgte en rekke biroller på film og TV, deriblant i filmer som 48 timer (1982), Dreamscape (1984), Runaway (1984) og The Hidden (1987), samt gjesteopptredener i TV-serier som T.J. Hooker, Remington Steele, Magnum, P.I. og Matlock.

Mulkeys karriere fikk en oppsving i 1990 da han spilte rollen som den forbryterske og utspekulerte Hank Jennings i tv-serien Twin Peaks.

Han har siden hatt få sentrale roller, men en kan nevne filmtitler som Ghost in the Machine (1993), The Fan (1996), Mysterious Skin (2004) Cloverfield (2008), The Purge (2013) og Gotti (2018).

Hans TV-opptredener har for det meste dreid seg om gjesteroller, men han hadde i perioden 1993–1994 en fast rolle i den heller mislykkede serien Bakersfield P.D., og i perioden 1998–2002 noen opptredener som Colliar Sims i den langt mer vellykkede dramaserien Any Day Now. I tillegg til dette hadde han i 2007 flere opptredener som Coach i den prisbelønnede dramaserien Friday Night Lights. Han har videre hatt gjesteopptredener i serier som blant annet Murder, She Wrote (1990 & 94), Walker, Texas Ranger (1997), The Outer Limits (1998), CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2003),  CSI: Miami (2003), JAG (2003), Lost (2006), Sleeper Cell (2006), Cold Case (2007), Criminal Minds (2008), Saving Grace (2007–2008), NCIS (2008), Law & Order (2009), Boardwalk Empire (2010–2011), CSI: Cyber (2016), Chicago Justice (2017) og Animal Kingdom (2019). Han har også medvirket i flere TV-filmer, deriblant Act of Love (1980), Tricks of the Trade (1988), K-9000 (1991), Runaway Father (1991), Nowhere to Hide (1994), Texas Justice (1995), Weapons of Mass Distraction (1997), Broken Trail (2006) og Knight Rider (2008).
