Paul continues to work at this and is very passionate in doing so. However he recently returned to performing and has been fortunate enough to work with very established world know film makers. Paul quotes" I feel more at ease being a performer knowing that in between productions I can embrace another side of reality working with those less fortunate doing my best to help them towards a happier life.

He was cast in the role of "Zed" and became the shows most popular character, it was to be a major turning point in Ian's career.
His performance as "Zed", a character described as having "no redeemable qualities" caught the attention of producers Peter Davis, William Panzer and director Doug Aarniokoski, who were in the process of casting Highlander: Endgame.

Ian was then immediately cast in the role of "Cracker Bob" in Dimension Film's; Highlander: Endgame.
