Jon Mullich (born 1961) American actor, playwright, director and Academy Award historian.

Mullich was born in Los Angeles, California.

Mullich played Gloucester in Reza Abdoh's vision of King Lear and Abel Drugger in The Alchemist at the Globe Playhouse among other roles before achieving recognition for his performance in the title role of Mark Ringer's production of Hamlet. It was praised for its "touches of gallows humor and mocking fatalism", the first theatrical production produced under the Actors' Equity Association 99-seat theater plan.

The LA Weekly described Mullich's Angelo in Measure for Measure: "this staging of Shakespeare's tragicomic treatise of sexual politics shines on the merits of the marvelously austere, yet emotionally vulnerable, Jon Mullich". He also played Lord Grizzle in Dennis Gersten's production of The Author's Thumb (adapted from the works of Henry Fielding), Thomas Diaforus in The Imaginary Invalid, Demetrius in A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Malvolio in Twelfth Night, as well as appearances on the television show Totally Hidden Video. When he took on the title role in Shakespeare's Richard III in 2015, one critic wrote "Jon Mullich is one of the best 'Richards' we have seen, teetering a tight line between portraying madness, histrionics and unbridled ambition. It takes a studied actor to show the human side of Richard without giving in to the buffoonery of his folly and Mullich owns the character both body and soul."
