aka Slade Wilson/Deathstroke, or also Azog from The Hobbit franchise, he also was Marc Antony in Xena: Warrior Princess back in his younger days



and considering the BBC likes diving in the aussie pond, and considering less and less appealing the australian version is becoming




i really think he is something for Nadiya, potential as a Davood 2.0

he does have a bit of dance background though, at school, some tap dancing and modern dance, before switching to acting classes, he also dated a professional dancer at school :D


and honestly his acting as Slade Wilson especially, not just a cliché villain, but such a complex character he played, from villain to a bit of a anti-hero



and the GBP will recognize him the most as Azog from the popular films The Hobbit, where he also was a villain

I'm not that familiar with him tbh.

So I voted for indifferent on the poll.

and suddenly i want him with Michelle, she can be the perfect ''Shado'' lookalike to his Deathstroke


and Manu & Michelle has a nice ring to it anyway :fc: please my dear producers




he also has easy housewife vote bait potential i think, a la Kelvin, but then mid 50's
