Rory Cochrane (born February 28, 1972)[1] is an American actor. He is known for playing Ron Slater in Dazed and Confused, Lucas in Empire Records, Lee Schatz in Argo, Freck in A Scanner Darkly, and Tim Speedle in CSI: Miami.[2]
Career
Cochrane's first roles included a part in a docudrama about drugs on Saturday Night with Connie Chung (1989)[3][4] and an appearance in an episode of H.E.L.P. (1990). He then made his film debut (with about fifteen seconds' screen time) in A Kiss Before Dying, followed by his first substantial role as Jeff Goldblum's son in Fathers & Sons.[5][6]
Cochrane's breakout role came when he was cast as stoner Ron Slater in 1993's Dazed and Confused.[7] Cochrane followed up with a well-received performance as the psychotic Billy Mack in the Renée Zellweger action comedy Love and a .45 in 1994. Cochrane appeared in the comedy Empire Records (1995) which was a box office bomb, but prominent film critic Roger Ebert praised his performance as a highlight of the film.[8]
Cochrane had a supporting part in the 2002 action-drama Hart's War starring Bruce Willis. He also appeared in the Richard Linklater film A Scanner Darkly (2006).
Cochrane played the role of CSI Tim Speedle in CSI: Miami seasons 1–3. Cochrane also reprised his role in the season 6 episode "Bang, Bang, Your Debt", as a hallucination to Eric Delko.
In 2015, Cochrane had a supporting role as Boston mobster Stephen Flemmi in the true-crime film Black Mass, which starred Johnny Depp.[9]
