I'm a journeyman actor, and I don't ever want to forget that. With romantic-lead dreams.
I've been kinda fascinated by misfits, outcasts, and downtrodden people. I've identified with them. 'Blade Runner' probably got me more work than any. It convinced some producers that I could play something other than a rural crazy, I guess.
I've said maybe too many times that I'd rather be typecast than not cast at all.
My first western was 'Death Hunt' with Charles Bronson and Lee Marvin; that was where I learned to ride. The movie was based on a true story about a guy that eluded the Mounties in Canada. We were in Canada for six weeks riding horses.
The best came from my martial arts teacher, who also taught Elvis. He said, 'Your ego will get you killed.'
