Muse Watson

Muse Watson’s got that face you swear you’ve seen in a hundred places, and honestly, you probably have. The dude’s been everywhere—one minute he’s swinging a hook in “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” scaring the life outta teens, and the next, he’s that soft-spoken guy in “Prison Break” who’s more likely to be petting a cat than plotting an escape. He’s played Hank, the down-home Southern boy in “Something to Talk About” with Julia Roberts, and then just flips the script as Mike Franks, the no-nonsense, gun-slinging mentor on “NCIS.” Fifty-five movies under his belt, plus more TV than most folks binge in a year, and he’s still not slowing down. On stage, he’s tackled Hamlet, turned up the heat as Stanley in “A Streetcar Named Desire,” and even played Cervantes in “Man of La Mancha.” Oh, and the guy’s tried his hand at directing too—“Ain’t MisBehavin,” just to name one. He’s even popped up on SNL with Jennifer Love Hewitt (not something every actor can claim). These days, he splits his time between chilling in Berea, Kentucky with his family and sneaking away to a secret spot in the Smoky Mountains. Basically, Muse Watson’s been everywhere, done everything, but ask anyone and they’ll tell you—he’s just getting warmed up.
