>Hollywood prefers actors who have had experience with roles as opposed to those learning second hand
Many are saying this.

Is there anyone who could take the reigns as soon as he ages out of acting? I dont know of any military veteran character actors besides the wide dude who played Kylo Ren

There's gonna be plenty after the war with China.

There's a little more to that. He was a grunt before he became a combat correspondent, and wanted to get into consulting. It was only Oliver Stone pushing him into the acting role during Platoon.
>>65567701
I'd be more concerned with his role as a consultant. He brings a ton of authenticity to productions that will probably be lost with him.

R Lee Er...oh wait ;_____;
>>
>>65567130
His main role was as a consultant brought in to help military stuff be more accurate and authentic-feeling, the acting stuff was generally secondary to that. My dad (art department) worked with him a few times, I know Outbreak was an example.
>>
>>65567130
He's done a really good job
>>65567701
Gary Sinese didn't serve but he's spent so much time around people who have that he probably could serve as a consultant on that kind of thing
