Christopher Drake is an American film, television and video game composer.

Drake also collaborated with del Toro in rescoring one of his early films Geometría, included in The Criterion Collection edition of del Toro's Cronos.

In 2008, Drake joined composers Robert J. Kral and Kevin Manthei in writing music for Warner Bros.'s Batman: Gotham Knight (2008). Following Gotham Knight, Drake scored the fourth in the line of DC Universe Animated Original Movies, Wonder Woman (2009).

Drake is also known for his work in video games, such as Hellboy: The Science of Evil (2008) Injustice: Gods Among Us (2013), Batman: Arkham Origins (2013), and Injustice 2 (2017).

In 2017, Drake was hired as the composer for Netflix's remake of the Lost in Space series, but later replaced by Christopher Lennertz.
