Mike currently appears as “Officer O’Callaghan,” opposite Bill Murray, in Sofia Coppola’s caper ON THE ROCKS, which is streaming through AppleTV+. He also made an appearance in Lorene Scafaria’s hit film HUSTLERS opposite Jennifer Lopez, Keke Palmer, and Lili Reinhart.

Mike was recently on two CBS dramas, as Detective Steve Torino on FBI, and as Internal Affairs Lieutenant McDonnell on BLUE BLOODS. On NBC he appeared as Officer Michael Frye through three episodes of THE BLACKLIST. You can also catch him on recent episodes of RAY DONOVAN, MADAM SECRETARY, THE GOOD FIGHT, ELEMENTARY, YOUNGER, THE PLOT AGAINST AMERICA and opposite Forest Whitaker in an explosive scene from GODFATHER OF HARLEM, on Epix.

You may also know Mike from the movie GIRL MOST LIKELY, in which he played RexT-Rex” Rinaldi opposite Kristen Wiig. Or from his roles on 30 ROCK, MYSTERIES OF LAURA or DAREDEVIL.

Mike was last seen onstage with Christina Toth (Orange is the New Black) in William Mastrosimone’s THE WOOLGATHERER, directed by Chazz Palminteri (A Bronx Tale, Usual Suspects) at the Planet Connections Theater Festival, where the production won honors for Best Revival, Best Director (Chazz), Best Actress (Christina) and Best Actor (Mike). Before THE WOOLGATHERER, Mike starred in the off-Broadway production of TWO BY TENNESSEE WILLIAMS.  He played "Jake" in 27 Wagons Full of Cotton, opposite Kim Garfunkel, and "Chicken" in Kingdom of Earth, opposite Judy Jerome, both directed by Marilyn Fried.  Here are some reviews:

"Mike Keller gives a PHENOMENAL performance ..." - Peter Filichia on BroadwayRadio

"The play works through Williams' dialogue and the formidable talents of Mike Keller... Through solid analysis and technique he gives us a complex and sympathetic portrayal of this lonely farmer ... Chicken is King." -Steve Capra, New York Theatr  

In 2012, Mike and Lyle Kessler began a weekly collective of actors and writers.  Mr. Kessler, writer of Broadway's ORPHANS, is also the former director of the Sundance Screenwriting Lab and now heads The Actor's Studio Playwright and Director Unit, which Mike is a Director member.  Their private collective meets every Monday night to workshop new and published material.  

He lives and works in downtown NYC.
