Looks like someone owes a favor

Does he have the look? Yeah. He can look between 18 and 30. But most of it will just by him fighting CGI monsters. Unfortunately I can't vouch for his acting ability, although he hasn't exactly been given great dialogue to work with.

Ok I was on the set of Herc. I have met Paul and seen him in action. Paul is a huge body building type, good actor, extremely nice person, does his own stunts. I can't go into much other detail, as there are non-disclosure contracts one has to sign. Accept I can tell you that all the girl's on set just said OMG, I think the word is swoon. But I would have to say, that if you are waiting for a great Hercules, Paul will be worth the wait.

Although Telfer appears low down on the IMDB cast list, that's only because it is listed alphabetically. In fact he plays Hephaestion, Alexander's closest buddy (but no rival, of course, to his girlfriend Leto!) so I would imagine he has a fairly major role.

Someone on the Alexander board said that Alexander the Great from Macedonia looks like a "sort of Macedon's Creek with sandals."
