<p dir="auto">This bloke is a great fighter and decent actor and I can't believe he hasn't been given a leading role in a mainstream action film. Sad that he had to get by making generally bad, low budget, shoddy action films. Give the guy a break!!!</p>

<p dir="auto">The guy was in Holby City, 10 years ago. Which is a hospital based drama series on the BBC. So he has been doing acting more than martial arts action films for years.<br />
It's that man again!!</p>

<p dir="auto">Haven't seen Dr Strange yet - but everyone billed above him is a bit of a thesp or has a pretty impressive resume - so his names on the poster which is great.  It would be a pity if he was just a henchman though  but it seems to be a decent gig.  But yes - one takes the point that it would just need one decent, defining role - and importantly one that might have been seen be the wider public that could take him on a bit like Transporter did for Jason Statham.<br />
Perhaps Batman might have been a bit too wild of a wild card, but the very fact he was at least considered, is a positive thing indeed.<br />
Adkins for Bond?  Would be great fun, but Daniel Craig had a lot more chance to demonstrate the dramatic chops before he got that gig.<br />
Ah well</p>
