Charles Cyphers is an American actor who is known in the horror movie community for his work in the films of John Carpenter, especially his role as Sheriff Leigh Brackett in Carpenter’s 1978 movie Halloween.
He reprised this role in the 1981 sequel Halloween II and returns to the character in Halloween Kills.
Charles Cyphers, Kyle Richards, and Nancy Stephens return to play their characters from the 1978 feature as well. Upon its release, Halloween Kills generated mixed reviews from critics, but found support from fans of the franchise and managed to be a relative success at the box office. Its sequel, Halloween Ends, is scheduled for an October 2022 release date, with Curtis and Courtney set to go at it again.

The most recent trailer for Halloween Kills, the sequel to 2018’s Halloween, played up the fact that the new film will reunite the Michael Myers survivors — including Lindsey Wallace (Kyle Richards), Tommy Doyle (Anthony Michael Hall), Marion Chambers (Nancy Stephens), and Sheriff Leigh Brackett (Charles Cyphers) — for a new battle against Michael after Laurie was unable to put him down for good at the end of Halloween. As part of the Blumfest streaming event on Friday, Blumhouse drove that point home even more with a new featurette dubbed “Return to Haddonfield,” focusing on the original cast members and their reunion with Curtis four decades after the first film.
