That Guy Actor of the Week: Maury Chaykin
Here is yet another actor who unfortunately passed away that we never got a chance to put on this website. His name is Maury Chaykin. You surely will recognize him. Maury always played a somewhat heavy set type of a guy who was either one of two things: either really nice or really mean. He had that kind of a face.
But Maury usually nailed all the roles he was in. In particular I liked him as the bad guy in Twins (a pretty small part) and his role as a lawyer in Mystery Alaska. He was a solid character actor and it’s too bad in 2010 he passed at only the age of 61.
Let’s check out a clip of Chaykin after the jump….

This is one of Chaykin’s final screen appearances. It was on Entourage.
check out the Drunk and On Drugs Happy Funtime Hour. Maury Chaykin plays an evil scientist.
Holy crap I completely forgot he was in Twins. He was so good in Entourage
The guy had range: he could play an anti-social computer geek in War Games and a somewhat thick witness for the prosecution in My Cousin Vinny.
