      He's probably not even high enough on the list of people they would sell a DUMB too. He's famous sure but he isn't "my name isn't googleable" rich.
      There's a compound in Des Moines Iowa that is wild. You can see the compound on the hill, it's address snd everything. Rumors around the city is the person that owns it is so wealthy his family name is blacklisted from being researched. I spent months trying to find information about who they were the only solid evidence I came across with multiple sources verified is that under the compound sits a couple hundred antic cars and not ones that ever saw market. If ibwas super wealthy the first thing I'd do is spend my money to keep my name out people's mouths. Look at actors like will Ferrell and Matt Damon. They pay good money to tabloids to leave them alone. That's a good investment of your name is gonna be public knowledge.

He is a multi millionaire and is probably earning an insane amount per episode. This is the comment just below yours: "This guy is in so many franchises but he totally deserves to be."
      "Most underrated actor of our time" really is the "Most exaggerated statement of ALL TIME" (It isn't, but we need to say BIG words to make our views sound important!)

Other than that, you are completely right: My comment is uncalled for, and over the top. I just felt but-hurt in that specific moment.

    I just re-watched Dredd (in 3D) last night and Karl Urban does SUCH a fantastic job in it. That movie never got a fair shake and is so completely underrated. I’d love to see a sequel for it. And for anyone that has seen it but not in 3D, I know that it’s a dying tech but if you can find a 3D TV and a BluRay player (even a PS4 for example), check it out. It’s almost like a painting, especially in the slo-mo sequences, with how much work they put into the various layers to give it depth, perspective, size, and scale. Alex Garland wrote it (28 Days Later, Sunshine, Ex Machina, etc.) and some say he shadow-directed it too. Anyhow, would love to see Dredd 2.
    I also loved Urban in the Riddick series, and DOOM, and a lot of other roles in films that weren’t huge but have sort of become cult classics over time as opinions change.

Instead, he got to be Cate Blanchet (who is amazing in THOR3, no diss here)'s errand boy, the punching bag for jokes, and has a blink and you'd miss it redemptive death at the end.

    I remember Karl Urban waaaay back when I watched Xena/Hercules as a kid where he played Julius Caesar. Been a fan ever since. Glad to see him as a humble, charismatic and charming dude 25+ years later.

      It was hilarious seeing him play two different characters on Xena, cause he also played CUPID! With terrible bleached blonde hair.

      Was he in Bourne Supremacy too? I'll have to rewatch it. I loved his character in RED. And I really want to hear some behind-the-scenes stories about having to fight Bruce Willis. 🤩

    Working on sets it was refreshing to see an Actor especially Karl explain what we all see during filming. Sometimes is very comical.
