Did You Know?

Personal Quote:

It's been said, truthfully, that every actor has a moment in every year, at least, when he knows for sure that he'll never work again. That's a more or less humorous way to point to the insecurity that comes with the job. I think that's why [Laurence Olivier] said, "If you have any choice at all, don't be an actor". See more »

Trivia:

He appeared in Billy Joel's music video "Piano Man" (1985). See more »

Trademark:

Often plays hard-edged but sarcastic law enforcement and military officers See more »
