34 | !!Tropes |
35 | * EvilSoundsDeep: He has a very deep voice and almost always plays bad guys. |
36 | * FakeNationality: You can count on one hand the number of times he's played a Venezuelan. In particular, he's cast as Russians due to his fluency in the language and impeccable accent. He also played a Colombian terrorist in ''Film/ToySoldiers'' |
37 | * FakeRussian: His go to role. Something of a subversion in that his father was Russian and he's fluent in the language. |
38 | * LatinoIsBrown: He's almost never cast as Latino characters, likely due in part to this trope. |
39 | * NoStuntDouble: Frequently does his own stuntwork. |
40 | * {{Omniglot}}: He speaks eight languages, and used to speak nine (Romanian, which he forgot when he had no one to speak it with). |
