He blowed up real good
2025
In 1998, I decided to fulfill the mission that brought me to Toronto in the first place: I quit my life with Big Rude Jake and put my horn away to go back to acting. I booked a photo session with Tim Leyes, convinced my buddy Joel to introduce me to Carolyn Govers, the best agent in town.She took me on and I booked 3 out of 4 of my first auditions, one of them for the role of Needlenose Norton, the asshole cop in the cult classic BRIDE OF CHUCKY. In fourteen days of shooting I made more money than playing 150 shows with Jake the year before. I did alright for a year or two. I got blown to bits by Chucky and Robocop. I got shot by Highlander, the Raven. I got an axe in the back by Jason Priestly. I made some little comedy films with friends. I enjoyed the standard career for a Toronto actor with a bald head.
