40 | !!This actor and his roles provide examples of: |
41 | |
42 | * EleventhHourRanger: He was a last minute addition to the ''Series/PrisonBreak'' cast. Suffice to say, [[StarMakingRole it worked for him]]. |
43 | * DeathGlare: WebSite/{{IMDb}} lists his intense glare as one of his trademarks, and it's true. He even does this in his Yoplait Yogurt commercial, while wearing a nice blue suit and speaking in his menacing voice. |
44 | * GentleGiant: Tall, rather intimidating looking, COVERED in tattoos but possibly one of the nicest people on the face of the earth. Don't let his appearance fool you. |
45 | * MrFanservice: His characters occasionally provide FemaleGaze, mostly through {{Shirtless Scene}}s. |
