Robert James Zdarsky (June 3, 1950 – March 30, 2015), better known by his stage name Robert Z'Dar, was an American character actor and film producer, best known for his role as officer Matt Cordell in the cult horror film Maniac Cop (1988) and its two sequels, as well as appearances in Tango & Cash and Samurai Cop. Z'Dar worked mainly in low-budget B movies and direct-to-video features, but occasionally in mainstream Hollywood films and television. Due to his cherubism, a medical condition resulting in an enlarged jawline, Z'dar had a unique and easily recognizable look with a slightly sinister appearance, which aided his career as he usually portrayed villains. A prolific actor, Z'Dar appeared in 121 films over the course of his 39-year career. Read more on Wikipedia
