The role of wisecracking, villainous Tully fits right into Dan Hedaya's type. He is often cast in colourful supporting roles. On two popular TV shows, he played guest-star relatives of main characters: Carla's ex-husband on Cheers and Monk's estranged father on Monk.
After The Addams Family came the role that endeared Hedaya to a generation of teenagers: Mel Horowitz, the gruff but affectionate father to Alicia Silverstone's Cher in the classic teen comedy Clueless. He's been working steadily since then, releasing at least a movie per year between 1995 and 2007. Most recently, he had a small part in 2016's Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
