Doug Anthony Hutchison (born May 26, 1960) is an American actor. He is known for his character roles in film and television, often playing disturbed and antagonistic characters.[1] He was nominated for a Satellite Award for his portrayal of the sadistic corrections officer Percy Wetmore in the 1999 film adaptation of the Stephen King novel The Green Mile.[2]

His other notable film roles include Obie Jameson in The Chocolate War (1988), Sproles in Fresh Horses (also 1988), Pete Willard in A Time to Kill (1996), and "Looney Bin Jim" in the Marvel Comics film adaptation Punisher: War Zone (2008). On television, Hutchison played a memorable guest role as Eugene Victor Tooms on The X-Files (1993, 1994) and a recurring role as Horace Goodspeed on Lost (2007–09).

In 2011, at the age of 51, he received widespread criticism when he married 16-year-old model Courtney Stodden.[3] In 2021, after the couple had divorced, Stodden accused Hutchison of having groomed her.[4][5] Hutchison denied the allegations.[6]
