Frank Sully (June 17, 1908 – December 17, 1975) was an American film actor. He appeared in over 240 films between 1934 and 1968.
Sully was often cast as a heavy or villian throughout his career.

Perhaps his most memorable role was as the bewildered waiter who thinks he is seeing double in the Stooges' A Merry Mix Up.
