A burly, commanding actor known almost as much for the tumultuous quality of his offscreen life as that of his onscreen roles, Tom Sizemore has carved out a niche for himself in such guys 'n' guns films as Natural Born Killers, Strange Days, Heat, and Saving Private Ryan.
Born in Detroit on September 29, 1954, Sizemore was educated at Wayne State and Temple University, earning a Master's in Theatre at the latter.

In 2000, Sizemore starred alongside Val Kilmer and Carrie-Anne Moss in the sci-fi adventure Red Planet; that same year, he appeared in Play It to the Bone, a boxing...

II think this is not the first time Tom Sizemore has been accused of hitting a woman. Here is the
IMDB mini-bio. Note the
"Arrested in Los Angeles, after his wife called police claiming she'd been physically injured by Tom during an argument at their apartment. [24 January 1997]"
