I think he also turned down the Tom Cruise role in Top Gun.

Cutthroat Island was the John Carter-sized bomb that killed the career of everyone in it, including him.

He's been in a bunch of movies. I remember him having a starring role in "And the Band Played on." He was extraordinary in that movie, playing the part of a research scientist at the start of the AIDS epidemic. He's one of my favorite actors.

He's an actor not a movie star.

Because he is a sheet ball actor..2 simple rules in acting..either your a break out star or just a wanna be actor..basicly he chose the maybe i can act role..and can not handle a real job..LMAO

Because he was too much of a pinko to take the lead role in Top Gun.


How about rooting for America for a change you liberal scumbag
