Beschreibungen/Notizen
Holt McCallany plays patriarch Fritz, a retired wrestler who never brought home the National Wrestling Association World Heavyweight Champion title, and so sees to it that at least one of his sons will. Each boy offers a variation on prettiness; there's the sensitive, stoic Kevin; the brooding Kerry, a trainee Olympian with a Roman nose; the lean and cheeky David, the de facto frontman of the clan; and babyfaced Mike, who would prefer to be playing the guitar. A sensitive jock with fluttery eyelashes, he catered to a swooning teen market in films such as Hairspray and 17 Again, before finding a niche as a self-aware "bimbo" in comedies including Neighbors, Dirty Grandpa and a Baywatch film.
