Rob Archer grew up as an '80s kid, admiring the big-name slashers such as
Jason Voorhees,
Freddy Krueger and
Michael Myers. However, at the age of twenty he opted to become a bodybuilder while all of his friends went off to college. His trainer's wife was a talent agent and insisted that he try out for acting. Archer recalled his first audition, "... it was a train-wreck. It was the most horrible thing I’d ever done. I remember afterwards getting into my car and I had tears streaming down my face, I was so embarrassed." After waiting a couple of months, Archer tried again and got bit parts in commercials. It was not until he got a role in
Exit Wounds that he decided to take acting seriously. This was followed by years in films such as
Bulletproof Monk,
Red,
Kick-Ass 2,
RoboCop and
Pixels as well as television shows such as
Lost Girl,
Mutant X,
Alphas,
XIII: The Series,
Defiance,
Beauty & the Beast and
Warehouse 13. Three years later, Archer would join the cast of
Ant-Man and the Wasp which is part of the
Marvel Cinematic Universe. ==Filmography==
