WP:BLP of an actor, with no strong claim to passing WP:NACTOR and no strong reliable source coverage to clear WP:GNG in lieu. His notability as an actor is staked on minor and guest roles, mostly as unnamed characters, and being in a beefcake calendar, and the referencing is stacked almost entirely onto unreliable sources like IMDb and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other people, except for a miniscule sprinkling of "local guy does stuff" coverage in his own hometown newspaper. And there's also a significant amount of reference bombing going on here, with many facts referenced to three or four of those weak sources apiece instead of just one good one. Nothing here, either in the sourcing or the substance, constitutes a reason why he would qualify for a Wikipedia article -- a person has to have had major roles, not walk-ons as "Cop #2", to pass NACTOR, and they have to have reliable source coverage in real media to support it, not just a bombardment of directory pages on IMDb or an IMDb wannabe.
