If not, maybe he can land a guard job with Haliburton. As for Telfer, he might have the looks, but I don't think he has a chance. I'm sure they'll find a completely new face, one without any baggage. This might sound crazy to some, but I think with today's leading man aesthetic, big muscular dudes will have a hard time. You don't need to weigh 220 lbs and be built like a brick wall to play Conan. Look at the guy who's playing John Carter of Mars. Look at the "Twilight" kid who just got signed for "Max Steel." The Australian kid on "Legend of the Seeker" is ripped and looks terrific on screen -- and he probably weighs less than 150 lbs. You could be 5'8 and weigh 150 lbs and still look badass on the big screen. Meryl Streep is onl 5'6" but just played Julia Child, who was a big woman at 6'2". Using camera angles, set design and costume tricks, the film made Streep look huge. And Elijah Wood really wasn't 3 ft-tall either. The problem with big beefy muscle guys is that they look too big, too beefy, too slow, and, in all honesty, not attractive to the masses. Body builders are really only attractive to other body builders. I’m sure Blackwater will be happy to have this guy back. If not, maybe he can land a guard job with Haliburton.
