Tyler Labine

Burly and heavyset American character actor Tyler Labine began his career with guest-oriented bit parts on television series during the early '90s, and ultimately parlayed this success into occasional, low-key film appearances. Though Labine's parts frequently took advantage of his build -- for example, his portrayal of Little John in the 1996 picture Robin of Locksley, and his evocation of the late John Belushi in the telemovie Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of Mork & Mindy (2005) -- he also demonstrated an adeptness for sinking into "everyman" roles -- such as his slicked-back fighter pilot Briggs Lowry in Tony Bill's period epic Flyboys (2006). Labine also lent supporting roles to the 2002 series That Was Then (as Donnie Pinkus) and the 2005 series Invasion (as conspiracy theorist and UFO expert Dave Groves). In 2006, he could be seen on the hit legal dramedy Boston Legal as an assistant district attorney, and the next year he was cast on the quirky supernatural drama Reaper. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
