Vin's Vices: Hey, nobody's perfect, right?!? Apparently, Vin is a social smoker but he says he doesn't drink...  Here's something interesting: during his stint as guest on The Daily Show, host Jon Stewart pressed Vin about whether he got his Iron Giant/bouncer/bedroom voice from a smoking habit; rumor has it that Vin evaded the questions because he didn't want to influence kids into thinking that it's cool to smoke; and the fans ring out "VIN, YOU'RE MY HERO"

Career: began acting at age 7 for the "Theater of the New City," run by his adoptive father; worked as a bouncer for 9 years while acting in off-off-off Broadway theatre until his big break with Multi-Facial at Cannes (which he wrote, directed, produced and starred in); the rest, as they say, is history...and its pretty much recorded here  :) Film Credits:                           1994     Multi-Facial          writer/director/actor/producer                1996     Strays               writer/director/actor/producer                1998     Saving Private Ryan     actor                1998     The Iron Giant         voice for Iron Giant                1999     Pitch Black          actor  (star)                1999     Boiler Room          actor                2001     Knockaround Guys    actor                2001     The Fast and the Furious     actor  (star)                2002     El Diablo               actor  (star)                ? ? ?       Terminator III        actor (bad guy)                ? ? ?       Hellboy                 actor  (star)                ? ? ?       Pitch Black II            actor, role reprisal (Riddick; star)                ? ? ?       next Batman movie      actor, as young Victor Fries (Mr. Freeze)                ? ? ?       A Thing of Beauty    writer/ ? ? ?                ? ? ?       Doormen     writer/ ? ? ?                ? ? ?       Triple X        actor                ? ? ?       Ecks Vs.

I know El Diablo is pretty much finished and on it's way to theatres. Knockaround Guys has been finished for EONS and still hasn't made it into theatres (what's up with that? If anyone knows, let me know!). GENERALLY known for: his artistic creativity and humbling talent; his sensitivity (people have said there's actually a sensitive guy 'neath that buff and gruff exterior); his incredibly sexy voice; his beautiful, healthy body; his commanding presence on and off-screen; his sexy lack of hair; his buff, bouncer arms (or, as he calls them, his "guns"); his ability to persuade (from years of telemarketing) What to keep your eye on: his production company, One Race Productions (check out www.strays.net); his love life (of course...LOL)
