Who Plays Mike Franks On NCIS?

Once Muse Watson proved that he was good at playing a bad guy in “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” Hollywood took note and some subsequent projects cast him as their villain, too. He soon reprised his iconic character in a sequel film titled “I Still Know What You Did Last Summer.”

Watson did a lot more than just play villains, however. In fact, in 1998, he portrayed a character unrelated to Mike Franks in an episode of “JAG,” the show that eventually spawned “NCIS.” The following year, he was a main cast member in “From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money.” Career highlights from the end of the ’90s and into the 2000s include parts in “Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me,” “Criminal Minds,” and “CSI.”

In 2005, Watson debuted on “Prison Break” in what remains one of his most substantial roles to date. The actor took on the role of Charles Westmoreland, a prisoner at Fox River State Penitentiary. In total, he appears as Charles in 18 episodes of Season 1, in addition to a brief reprisal in one episode of Season 4. This is just one shy of his 20 total episodes of “NCIS.”

Given its jump backward in time, a younger actor is all but guaranteed to take over the part of Mike Franks in “NCIS: Origins.” Fans of Watson’s “NCIS” work, however, can turn to plenty of additional material for more from the prolific TV and movie actor.
