Actor: Paul Reiser

Paul Reiser played Carter Burke in Aliens, a company representative whose betrayal is so complete that the character became shorthand for corporate treachery.

His actual career is comedy: Mad About You ran seven seasons and he co-created it, and Diner and Beverly Hills Cop gave him early film roles.

Whiplash and Stranger Things gave him a late dramatic register, and he is a musician who has recorded with Julia Fordham.
