Here is an excerpt from the article I wrote. If you want to read the rest click the link at the end.
For those unfamiliar with Michael Paré he has been in such movies as The Philadelphia Experiment, Eddie and the Cruisers (one of my favorites) and the TV show The Greatest American Hero. He also has been working with Uwe Boll on a few films including Postal and SEED. On a side note they are trying to make The Greatest American Hero into a movie. Yes I am twitching up a storm over that one as it is one of all time favorite TV shows.

TMW: I don't know if you have heard but they are trying to make "The Greatest American Hero" (GAH) into a movie, what do think about that?
MP: It's a great idea. I mean just with the special effects alone. To get Billy Katt to fly they had him on wires and now with CGI they can make that look better and really get into the other powers he had.
TMW: Who would you like to take the Robert Culp part of the FBI agent?
MP: Oh I would love it. My first scene ever as an actor was with Robert Culp. It was for GAH and I was supposed to go into the diner and pull a switch blade on him and he pulls his gun. I didn't know anything about marks lighting or anything. I walk up and when he pulls out the gun it's a revolver and I can see into the chambers and it looks like real slugs to me. I said "Is that a real f***ing gun"
Culp thought I was improvising and said "You bet your ass it is." all while the director is yelling "You can't cuss on TV."
Honestly I nearly s*** myself when he pulled that gun.
Who do I have to get to for that part?
