What has action star Steven Seagal been doing since his box-office heyday of the mid 90s? Turns out he's been battling crime. For real: he's been working as an unpaid reserve deputy for Louisiana's Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office.
And now, it's all going to be on TV:
Seagal, 58, who has a second home in bayou country, is a fully commissioned deputy and spends several months a year in Louisiana. While on the force, he usually works five-day shifts.
Jefferson Parish Col. John Fortunato, who partners with Seagal on the 13-episode series, says Lawman captures deputies in a high-crime arena – interrogating suspects, breaking up fights, chasing bad guys and making arrests.
"It just so happens that Steven Seagal is a movie star, but this is not made for TV, where there are second takes or things staged," Fortunato says. "He's out patrolling areas where there's a considerable amount of crime. This is for real."
and don't forget, Segal got his ass handed to him, TWICE, from Frank Zito. Lotta good all that martial arts training did him.
The only difference I can find between the two is one has bad acting.
No, wait, my mistake. They both have bad acting.
Isn't this one of the signs of the Apocalypse?
Frightening in the aspect that he glorifies his violence the pompous arrogant way he does.
