He needs to play roles that aren't just military oriented


I get that because of his size, he's normally taking military roles, but the only other thing I've seen him in was Medal of Mary - as a thief and a father. He was quite good in the role, but to be honest, his accent was overdone.

I'd like to see him in a more vulnerable role - not just a cop, military officer, etc.

Check him out in The Fugitive, Tombstone, and Manhunter.

He said in a speech at Gettysburg that they give him military roles because he has a big voice and good posture. I might add, he is smokin' ripped.

I want to see him try different roles too,but I love seeing him in these because hes an older guy and can still kick ass

I grew up living him as a cowboy in Tombstone and Tall Tale. He's a very nice guy in Tall Tale. I wish he'd go back to playing Cowboys... I'm bored of him always being tired to military.

He doesn't have range to play anything other than a tough guy.
