Trivia

Had a hard time dealing with the weight of the Predator makeup when he went in for the first costume test for Alien Vs. Predator. Therefore, he devised a method of building muscle where he would stuff a vest with rocks and jog regularly for a few weeks. When he went back in for the second costume test, he was stronger and able to carry the weight of the outfit better.
