  • I found this interview on the internet by accident while I was looking for the Alien Anthology Bluray edition. He's a really great actor, and it's a shame he didn't get to play Hicks in Alien 3.

    Such a cute and sweet guy! I'll never really understand why he has played so many villains, to me he was never better than when he played the badasses with a kind heart, like Reese and Hicks and it's mostly because of those characters that he'll always be remembered. I wish I had seen more of him in those heroic roles.

    Nothing about him doesn't leak out sexiness. His eyes, complexion, skin, hair color, built, voice, smartness, manners, and acting skills.
    Now that he's older but he looks just as good and lean.
    I really hope he reads this, so he knows the support he's getting from around the world. I'm sure he does though.

    i dont get all the people saying he ''never hit it big" or "could have been A list" you have to realize that he was a part of several of the biggest most classic 80's movies and a few of the best 90's movies also... he IS IS IS IS an A-list actor !! he has had an amazing career (in my eyes). i hate to think that anyone, especially Michael, thinks otherwise.

    • @fotoautomatmusic
      @fotoautomatmusic Před 2 lety

      I 5think he knows he was in alot of dud films too though, or just didn't get offered as many great parts as others. But as someone who has friends who can sustain themselves well from acting in commercials and sitcoms even making 1 movie a year he'd be earning enough and doing ok, and he usually did at least 2 a year even post The Rock when he as mainly cast in subpar films. He's still kicking on though, he loves it, alot of others acting since the 70s have given up..

      I only know Michael from that movie deadly intentions 1988 came out playing murderous doctor.. yep I guess Michael has a fetish for dying scenes this villain I never seen the other movies yet but it ends up getting killed right so I guess he just loves to lay on the floor riddled with bullets or whatever a bomb blows him up? Or maybe gets done in with a sword or spear or Trident if he played a gladiator movie admit make a sexy looking retiarius

    I work in a TV studio, and the last 3 minutes actually do make sense -- what they're doing is basically creating a B-Roll, just in case they dislike the original takes of the lines, they can substitute the B-Roll footage into the interview. [It's a common technique, and you'd be surprised how little you'd notice it. Almost every single modern talk show uses this technique, often on a basis of about once every two episodes.]

    It's because of all the REALLY big "other staring roles" he for some crazy reason or another didn't get.
    He was up for:
    -The bad guy in Terminator 2
    -Starring role as Hicks in Alien3 (awesome script got canned).
    -Peter Parker in Spider Man
    -McManus in the Usual Suspects
    -Colonel Quitric in Avatar
    -plus many others that I cant recall. I'm sure some other people will repost some.
    I seem to remember something about him
    Playing Cyclops in XMen too.

    @bek12 haha, when I took a production class last year, one of our projects were to do an interview. The process they taught us was exactly like this. These days however, it's not as common to do it in this way, since they film and entire interview live with two cameras pointed at an interviewee and the interviewer and just edit it together later. But yeah this is how they did it in the old days (and to an extent some still do it this way)

    just a random observation, you can tell that he's really nice and easy to get along with and probably sensitive as a result. it is usually those type guys (like myself) that are carrying inner pain when them and end up drinking or doing something else to cope. im not surprised by his alcoholism, especially when you consider that actors can have many weeks if not months of time off between projects. how do you fill your time?? ALCOHOL

I'm really sad for Michael Biehn because he never became the leading man tbh. If Alien 3 had followed the Gibson script he would of rose to A in everyones eyes. Not just his fans. Really annoys me. He should of been in Alien 3!! Massive movie, could of been his second breakthrough.

    The art and design of alien was higher quality than aliens, jim sacrificed a bit of quality because of the scope of the movie was MUCH bigger than alien thats taking nothing away from aliens its a masterpiece. Alien is more an art directors movie, it had fewer sets and special fx so they had more money and ridley scott to make it look visually stimulating. In a way its unfair to compare them both films are equally good but for different reasons and thats ok! they are completely different genres

    On his wiki page and and in the trivia section on the T2 IMDB page. He was suppose to be in about a billion movies that were hugely successfu... He just had bad luck.
    -spiderman as Peter Parker
    - usual suspects - as McManus
    - avatar as Col Quiterich
    He was considered for The leads in Die Hard, The Running Man, to name a few...
