If he ever decided to start acting again, what roles could he play?


Honestly I can't picture him in any kind of role today unless they ever decided to make another Ghostbusters or Honey I Shrunk The Kids movie. Roles for short nerdy guys with glasses just aren't really needed much.

He can try any role he feels comfortable with. Seeing him drama or suspense roles would be interesting, I am not certain if he has done such films yet.

I could see him play "Q" in the James Bond movies.

Rick is a very capable actor. There are plenty of things he can do, both as an actor and voice work in movies.

Since he does have somewhat of a nerdy appearance, I could see him playing a college professor. The plot could revolve around him trying to find someone, years after the death of his wife. Sort of like a romantic comedy-drama. I wonder who could play his love interest? (Maybe someone like Anna Farris, perhaps?)

It's kind of a shame he missed out on the Ghostbusters reboot. Murray, Akroyd, Hudson, Waever and Potts are all involved, so why not him?

I'm glad he was smart enough to avoid that trash

I think it would be awesome to see him on Better Call Saul as a nerdy looking but brutal Hit man or something like that.
