Michael Ironside

During filming of Atto di forza (1990), Arnold Schwarzenegger noticed that he was constantly on the phone between takes. When he broached the subject with him, he was told the he was phoning his sister and that she was currently suffering from cancer. Arnold immediately brought Michael to his trailer and they had an hour-long 3-way conversation with Ironside's sister about what exercises she should do and what kinds of foods she should be eating. Ironside has never forgotten Schwarzenegger's kindness and neither has his sister.

I like to play bad guys, since good guys are always beaten up several times during the movie. Bad guys are beaten only once, in the end.
