An actor of range and nuance who naturally projects intelligence and authority, Christopher Randolph brings his charisma, emotional depth, and wry humor to complex roles. He is equally adept on stage, screen or in a recording booth. He recurs as Judge Jerry Linder on Law & Order; voices the internationally recognized character "Otacon" in the blockbuster Metal Gear Solid game series; and has shared the stage with Christopher Plummer and F. Murray Abraham in Shakespeare productions both on and off Broadway. On film his work includes roles in the sci-fi/horror movie "The Shells" opposite star Brit Lower, and as Police Captain Marino in the crime drama "A Father's Son" with the actor/comedian Ronnie Chieng. As a classically trained actor and director, with an MFA in Acting from UC San Diego, he's collaborated with award winning directors like Darko Tresnjak and Sir Jonathan Miller, and performed on stages in New York, LA and across the US.
He is a longtime member of SAG-AFTRA and AEA, a whiz with dialects (British, Russian, French, Spanish, multiple U.S. regional), a proficient horseback rider who worked a couple of seasons as an actual cowboy, and an experienced open water sailor. In his downtime he enjoys cooking gourmet meals and playing with his dog Ellie, a 110 Lb Great Pyrenees.
