The actor
Built for the big screen
Olivier Richters is a Dutch actor and the tallest professional bodybuilder on record. In twelve years he has gone from small parts on Dutch television to Marvel, Lucasfilm and Paramount.
He brings a scale no effect can fake: Ursa in Black Widow, Hauke in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Paulie opposite Alan Ritchson in Reacher, and now Zangief in Street Fighter.
