Silas Carson (born c. 1965), a British actor, is mostly known for playing Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi and Viceroy Nute Gunray as well as some other minor parts in the three Star Wars prequels.

In , Carson plays two other speaking parts: He is the Senator of the Trade Federation, Lott Dod (although his voice was replaced with that of actor Toby Longworth), and he is also the co-pilot of the ship which Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi are on in the first scene.

He also made a guest appearance on the BBC series Hustle, as Bollywood film fan and perfectionist Kulvinder Samar, and in Spooks. He provided alien voices for the Doctor Who episode The End of the World and voices monsters the Ood in the episodes The Impossible Planet and The Satan Pit.

In late 2005 various sources indicated that Carson would play Horace Slughorn in the film adaption of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. However this was quickly debunked as casting for the fifth film Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix had not even begun yet.
