Meet Charles Halford, The Little-Known Actor Who’s Portraying Reggie Ledoux On ‘True Detective’

So far in True Detective‘s first four episodes, we’ve been treated to two fleeting images of possible sicko serial killer/meth chef Reggie Ledoux, and neither of those provided much in the way of a clear view of what he looks like. The first, of course, was the haunting image of Ledoux wearing nothing but a gas mask and tighty-whities as he roamed about a secluded area.

And there was the brief glance we all got at a sketch of him on a police report this past Sunday night

Now, I’m told that Ledoux will make a return appearance this coming Sunday night and we’ll all get a better look him, but of course I’m having trouble waiting til Sunday night for my next True Detective fix, so, curious, I did some digging around earlier today and, according to IMDB, Ledoux is being portrayed by a little-known actor named Charles Halford. Like the lead pic above from Twitterhis IMDB page provides a better look at him…

I was also able to find an acting reel for him on YouTube…

His Facebook banner pic looks familiar…

And he’s on Twitter, though he’s only tweeted 23 times as of this writing. Can’t help but wonder if this is True Detective related, but I bet it is…

TELL US, CHARLIE! TELL US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
