His film debut ensued three years later in “The Long Island Incident”, in which he portrayed the character Hugh. Subsequently, more opportunities unfolded, fueling the augmentation of his net worth. In 2000, he featured as a guest in an episode of “Relic Hunter” and secured a role in “Witchblade” the following year, appearing in two episodes as Hector “Moby” Mobius.
