Lou Wagner (born August 14, 1940) is an American actor. Wagner started out as an actor in his teens, notably appearing in Jack Webb's revival series, Dragnet 1967 several times (in different roles), and the hugely-successful Airport as a young passenger Schuyler Schultz, traveling with his parents. He is probably best known for two roles: that of the young, rebellious chimpanzee in the original 1968 film, Planet of the Apes, and for his series regular role as mechanic Harlan Arliss in the NBC television series CHiPs from 1978 to 1983. As of 2023, Wagner is one of the last two surviving principal cast members of Planet of the Apes along with Linda Harrison. ()
