PROFILE: Tommy Gun,Ex cage fighter turned actor was born & bred in south east London & like most when he was a youngster took up martial arts,this particular art was kyokoshin karate in which he was a natural.
In his later years he took up MMA(mixed martial arts).a combination of kickboxing , grappling & ju-jitsu at the famous south London camp the ELITE fighting system based in the elephant & castle where he achieved his first dan black belt.
He competed in many events & later fought with no losses in full contact cage fighting .
Due to his skill,personality & natural carisma he was sent to castings & auditions set up by his instructor Dave O’donnel,creator/promotor of cage rage,& this is when things changed for the better.
While being cast as a shadow warrior in batman returns,it was during a scene being acted out between liam neeson & christian bale that he was blown away & found a respect & love for acting & has since been involved in many t.v & film projects from batman returns,28 weeks later,epidemic,to 10 dead men,where he plays a main role as a villian named Bruiser.
When not on set he keeps busy by attending as many workshops as possible as he is an absolute livewire & cant stay being stagnant for to long which is why he also finds time to teach martial arts which keeps him in shape,both mentally & pysical.
