"This post-apocalyptic future story is based on the 8th century Saxon epic poem about the knight who battled a monster in a medieval castle. In this story, Beowulf is a wanderer who learns about a man-eating creature called Grendel which comes in the night to devour warriors trapped at the Outpost. The Outpost is ruled by Hrothgar. He has a daughter, whose husband may have been murdered by the Outpost's master of arms."

How in the heck did Lambert have such a successful acting career?

Edit: and what ever happened to him?

[-] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 7 points 9 months ago

He was cast in highlander and it was high concept movie that elevated to be a hit with some critical success. Then he was in lots more that were similar.

He was in multiple others of varying success after but he was always acting.

I was thinking he was in the Kung Fu TV show too, but that was David Caradine. They have a similar look.

there can be only one

[-] Algaroth@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Turns out, there could be several. A shitload of sequels and two tv shows. There should have been only one.
