Christopher Bradley "Chris" Owens is a Canadian actor. Owens was born in Toronto, the son of Jeannette, a jazz singer, and Garry Owens, a jazz drummer. Owens has performed in many feature films, often in minor roles, including appearances in Cocktail and The Recruit. However, he is best known for his performances on the television series The X-Files. Owens initially guest starred as the younger version of William B. Davis's character, the Cigarette Smoking Man, in a 1996 episode "Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man". He returned in 1997 in the same role in an episode called "Demons". Later that year, he played the Frankenstein-esque Great Mutato in a surreal episode called "The Post-Modern Prometheus". In 1998, Owens was cast as special agent Jeffrey Spender, son of the Cigarette Smoking Man and alien abductee Cassandra Spender. Spender was credited as 'Also Starring' but only appeared in eight episodes, spread across the show's fifth and sixth seasons, before his character died at the hand of his father. Owens returned in a 2002 episode called "William", playing a hideously disfigured Jeffrey Spender who had survived the "murder".
