Max Ryan Biography
Steel-hewn, barrel-chested screen performer Max Ryan sported a rugged, threatening image that immediately placed him in a tight genre niche in action movies; producers typically, though not always, cast him as the villain. Among other accomplishments, Ryan made one of his earliest appearances as a heavy opposite martial arts superstar Jet_Li in Chris_Nahon's action thriller Kiss of the Dragon (2001), played one of the nemeses of Sean_Connery in Steve_Norrington's muddled, roundly disappointing comic book-style adventure The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003), and ushered in a sense of pure unadulterated evil with his portrayal of a psychotic, sadistic madman in Robby_Henson's thriller Thr3e (2007). The following year, Ryan again starred as the villain, this time opposite Joan_Allen and Jason_Statham, in Death_Race (2008), Paul W.S. Anderson's remake of the Corman outing Death_Race_2000 (1975).
