Andrew Bryniarski Biography
A hulking actor whose early performances in such efforts as Hudson_Hawk (1991) and Street_Fighter (1994) utilized his girth to maximum effect, actor Andrew Bryniarski has crafted an impressive career in action films while considerably honing his acting skills. Born in Philadelphia in 1969, it was on a summer vacation to Hollywood that Bryniarski stumbled into acting after being spotted by a talent scout and screen testing for legendary Hollywood director Joel_Silver. Soon acting alongside Bruce_Willis in the notorious Hollywood bomb Hudson_Hawk (1991), roles in Batman_Returns (1992) and Street_Fighter (1994) proved Bryniarski was an onscreen talent to be reckoned with. Of course, he was a natural for sports films, and with such efforts as Necessary_Roughness (1991), The_Program (1993), and Any_Given_Sunday (1999), Bryniarski took to the gridiron with bone-crunching results. After smashing skulls in both Pearl_Harbor (2001) and Rollerball (2002), Bryniarski teamed with legendary Hong Kong film director Tsui_Hark for a villainous role in Black Mask 2: City of Masks (2002). After stepping into Gunnar_Hansen's formidable shoes for the role of legendary screen villain Leatherface in the 2003 Hollywood horror remake The_Texas_Chainsaw_Massacre, it was back to the gridiron in the same year's The Playmakers of New Orleans.
