Biography
Canadian stage and television actor Nick Mancuso was first seen on American TV screens in 1978's Dr. Scorpion. Mancuso's film career was launched the following year with Nightwing. The actor's raffish handsomeness has served him well in both heroic and less-than-heroic roles. Nick Mancuso has played the title character on two TV action series: in 1986's Stingray, he portrayed what was described by the NBC publicity flacks as "a Lone Ranger in a black sports cast;" and in the USA network's 1993 crime-fantasy series Matrix, he starred as a heartless hit man who is given a second lease on life as a celestial do-gooder. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
