Timeline

2010

In 2010 Ian auditioned for the role of "The Mountain" in the upcoming TV smash Game of thrones. Ian was not cast, but was invited to fill the role of "The White Walker" for season one. Thus began a period of great creativity which saw Ian play roles in every season of the show so far, delivering more characters than any other actor in the show. Including the giant "Wun Wun" who fought in the two top rated battle episodes of the franchise in series 5 and 6.

2009

Clash of the Titans followed in 2009. Directed by Louis Leterrier the character of Sheikh Suliman gave Ian a golden opportunity to develop his skills with a glittering ensemble cast.

Ian was of course successful in giving the directors exactly what they wanted and AVP Requiem was shot in 2006. Ian's dedicated self imposed preparation involved a great deal of martial arts training and Ian based the characteristics of the Warrior on an obscure Chinese martial art called Ba Gua. The shooting schedule for requiem was extremely intense. Half the time as for AVP with twice the action. However, during production Ian found time to quickly. Travel to New Zealand to meet with the Director Neil Blomkamp to discuss the role of the Master Chief in his new film based on the Halo video game. A meeting turned into an audition, a costume fitting and quick negotiations with the producers before returning to Vancouver.

Ian returned to England soon after to play for the Newcastle Eagles, a place that would become his home until his retirement from the game in 2003. Throughout his career Ian tirelessly distinguished himself, representing his country 80 times.

In 2003 Ian received a phone call that would change the whole course of his life. By his own admission he was keen to retire on his terms rather than through injury or old age, he responded to a casting call for the new film Alien vs Predator. His success in gaining the role is a matter of history, but personally it was a tremendous victory for him to finally find an outlet for his emotional creativity. Ian was fortunate to work alongside such luminaries as the Oscar winning special effects duo Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff Jr as well as Oscar winning VFX supervisor John Bruno. He also met soon to be double Oscar winning makeup effects artist Mark Coulier who advised him to get in touch with Nick Dudman, the creature effects supervisor for the Harry Potter franchise. Upon completion of filming on AVP Ian travelled back to England and straight into the world of Harry Potter.

During this time Ian found himself in great demand, but had to turn down roles on The Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy and a worldwide tour with Cirque du Soleil. Soon after the release of Harry Potter, the AVP sequel went into production.
