What if this guy played Drago?


I know a lot of people tried out for the Drago part and some of us had our favorites, but what about having Lou Ferrigno play Drago? Dude was massive and since there wasn't a lot of lines in this movie he could of pulled it off. :)

Aside from the fact that he didn't look Russian, at 35, Louie would have been a bit old.

I believe he was 33 at that time, actually maybe younger depending on when they started filming this movie. And he is 5 years younger than Arnold, who a lot of people wanted to play Drago. They could of made him look like Drago, use contacts to change color of eyes, dye hair and your good to go. But the problem would be saying his line, being deaf you had a hard time understanding what he was saying. But either way my original post was more in fun.

Pretty big guy too at 6'5 and just full of muscles, like this:
