the Max Headroom chronicles

Show Cast & Character Questions

A large number of the minor actors and character roles in the US series remain unidentified. Some of the actors are so minor as to lack an IMDb listing. Can you identify these actors and match them to characters, and vice versa?

IMDb links have been provided for those actors which have them. None of the entries have photos, though. If you want to help solve these mysteries, look through the IMDb filmography for each and see if you perhaps have one of their credited roles in your film library. Send me a screen capture of their image, or make a match to the Max Headroom role if you can!

You can also read and join in the discussion of missing information on the MaxChat forum.

These two characters are prominent in the telefilm, and recur sporadically in the series episodes (often played by different actors from episode to episode). They never speak, but frequently get individual screen cameos.
