Hey It's That Guy Actor of the Day: Mike Starr

  I thought I would try a new type of post where every day I try to think of a Hey it's that guy actor. I'll do my best to try to remember new ones so I have a few of them lined up. I thought for my inaugural Hey It's That Guy Actor of the day, It would be no other than Mike Starr.
  Now this Mike Starr shouldn't be confused with the other Mike Starr, who is the late bassist for the band Alice in Chains. This is the actor we are talking about here. Now that I cleared up the confusion between the actor and the musician we can now proceed to talking about the actor.
