His role as the lead henchman of the villain king in Dragon Heart was also a sensation, so was his role of Shao Kahn in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. He is also one of the regular casts in Star Trek, with his first role coming in Star Trek: The Next Generation (1989). He was initially rejected because they thought that he would not fit into the costumes that they had, but still managed to fit in; and thus got a regular role.

He is a tall man, strongly built and has a good physique. Weighing about 140 pounds, he measures 6 feet and 3 inches tall and says that his physique is one of the reasons that he got selected in the movies.
"If you're very physical in stature, you’re gonna get hired for action movies. The hero is always going to be chasing someone so they need an equal adversary. I'm never going to play a nebbish geek”, he said in an interview. There are many pictures of his available in the media, where he has posed shirtless and revealed his body. An American by birth, he is a Christian by religion and belongs to white ethnicity. With a net worth value of $2 million US dollars, he has made a name and a fortune for himself.

But that is nowhere near true, as he has been a married man, and is a father of two children as well. Although his dating list is not very long and he hasn’t had as many girlfriends as some other actors, but his affairs are very well known to the media. He was dating film producer Isabelle Mastorakis between 1990 and 1996 but broke up with personal reasons. After that, he married his current wife Shari Braun in 1998, who also happens to be a film producer as well as an actress. With more than 17 years of successful married life, there is little chance of them getting a divorce anytime soon.
