Brian van Holt is probably the most misunderstood actor in Hollywood.
Because of his good looks and body type he has been fated to play mostly a bunch of hunky law-enforcement guys, which didn't require great acting skills. So it was a good surprise to see there was so much talent hidden under that skin when John from Cincinnati premiered, which also makes one take a (long) second glance at some of his previous minor (yet significant) works. He has proved such an accomplished actor with wide dramatic range it's hard to believe he's been taken for granted for so long. But that's about to be past now as we'll hopefully see him casting big time series, right?moreless
