Meeting John Wayne
Like everyone else, there were a lot of actors he looked up to. One of them was John Wayne. “I went and got John Wayne’s autograph. He was doing ‘The Shootist,’ his last film. I went in and talked with him for a few minutes. He didn’t know me from Adam but he knew I was an aspiring actor.”
Elliott As Thunderbolt Ross
In Hulk (2003), he played the part of “Thunderbolt Ross” opposite of Eric Bana. When the franchise was revived in 2008, Elliott wanted to play the same character, but this didn’t happen.
