Who played the good alien JUDE?


As with all their films SciFi channel has the annoying habit of split screening for advertising just as the credits start to run so I could not read the cast credits.
Unfortunately even IMDB did not list this important character who even had dialogue. Does anybody know who was the actor who played JUDE, the good alien in black?

That's dude that plays Jason Pitts on that t.v. show "The Game".

I think you're right. He is that dude from Third Watch. I wonder why he doesn't want to get the credit for this movie?

It IS Coby Bell! It's been driving me so crazy throughout the whole stupid movie because IMDB didn't list it, SciFi didn't, and Google didn't either. So when TiVo was done, I clicked it back to the very beginning, and that's the only place his name is credited! And HEY, IMDB?! What's up with crediting "Girl Driver" Nobody but not Coby Bell--who IS the entire movie? And here's the really weird part: when you go to Coby Bell's IMDB page, this isn't listed? So either he's really embarrassed or angry at how they treated him...

There is an explanation for it. Sometimes actors will do a non-union/SAG movie.
They get paid for it, but they don't get the credit for it.

I saw this last year when I spotted Christopher Heyerdahl in some movies that
he wasn't being credited for and it turns out that the movies were non-union made.

The first person I thought of when I saw Jude was the UFC fighter; Tito Ortiz.
Sad that there isn't a complete cast list on IMDB.
