Rhys-Davies has the advantage of being a well-respected actor all over the globe; even if Hollywood won't accept him, he'll still be able to work everyone else. He's made a lot B movies over the past twenty years, but the attitude in Europe over those is different; there isn't a stigma attached to them, but are accepted as coming with the job BTW How many other people also remember Rhy-Davies that originally played the Kingpin, in The Trial of the Incredible Hulk?
I thought he was good as Sallah in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Definitely! He was just magnificent in that part, as he has been in most of his films. Even in truly bad films, like King Solomon's Mines and The High Crusade (both of which desecrate the wonderfuly rousing books they're based on), he's always a terrific boisterous presence. Why hasn't anyone cast him as Henry VII yet?
