Based on the name value I had, I went to L.A. and got involved in independent movies.

In the wrestling world, you had WWE, WCW, and smaller promotions that were like the independents. I look at it as craft beer being the independent beer makers. It's the indie scene.

Most of my work has been independent movies outside the mainstream system.

It's very difficult to raise money, especially in the United States, for independent movies.

Actors dread working with studios because they dictate what you do in a way that independent movies can't.

I couldn't survive just doing independent movies. And I'd rather do modelling than movies or TV I didn't like.
