Biography
Chad Coleman is an American actor born September 6, 1974, who built his career on antagonist and morally grey roles across prestige television. He first gained recognition playing Dennis "Cutty" Wise on HBO's The Wire across its 2004–08 run, a role that defined his archetype of conflicted, street-level characters. The Walking Dead cast him as Tyreese from 2012–15, another role anchored by internal contradiction. Beyond drama, Coleman voices Coach in the video game Left 4 Dead 2 and played Z on the FX sitcom It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia from 2010–19, proving range beyond heavy drama. His later work includes Mingo on the 2016 Roots miniseries, Fred Johnson on The Expanse (2015–20), Klyden on The Orville (2017–22), and Bruno Mannheim in Superman & Lois (2023–24). As a Virgo, Coleman's precision in character work—the careful layering of contradictions—reflects his sign's analytical nature. Actors perform across mediums: live theatre, scripted television, film, and voice work, balancing character development with narrative demands.
