Very good interview. He truly is a sweet man. I met him very briefly in West Hollywood and I told him how much his roles impacted me. He smiled, laughed and said “Then I did my job!” It’s amazing how you see those crazy characters on screen(how did he do it!) and then to meet this sweet man who wouldn’t hurt a fly. I’m grateful to have met him, and very saddened to hear of his passing last year.
Many people have expressed the opinion that Drago is a very underrated actor, and I have to agree; but while he may not be a superstar along the lines of Cruise or Hanks or DiCaprio, he's been more successful than the vast majority of people who get into acting. With a net worth (according to the Internet, anyway) of $1.5 million, I'm betting he would be the first to say it's been worth it.
He always played evil or sinister -like characters that were a bit intimidating.. My wife and I met him at a show in 2012. He was the nicest and most soft spoken man.. He started talking about his wife that had just passed away, and literally started to cry. Despite his roles a very nice man, and he could not have been more gracious..
So underrated. One of the best, on point, less is more, ..not enough to be said just a great great actor and we were all blessed by each of his perfect performances. Thank you BD. - Humbled
Mr Drago always played evil characters, which most actors enjoyed playing,in which Mr Drago was fantastic playing and we enjoyed watching him portray, when he you hate the character on screen that is a sign of a great actor which Mr Drago certainly was. RIP Mr Drago.
A very talented actor, as well as his wife. In life sometimes the actors who play the villian or have an outward scary appearance are some of the nicest people. The opposite is of course true also.
Have they still not made one about him yet? I watched a doc on him and if hex just changed his footwear each time he did something they wouldn't have known there was a serial killer about as he kept changing his m.o and didn't always kill them.But yes Billy Drago would be the part for him definitely
I remember how he scared the shit out of me as John Bly in Brisco County Jr. One of the truly horrifying characters from my childhood, those eyes, that voice...... and that creepy ass smile!! A truly sociopathic character, and Drago was absolutely perfect for the role.
@fenriz218 that would have been brilliant actually. Michael Rooker and tom towles were great but brad dourif and billy drago could make anything seem seedy and dangerous.
В сериале Секретные материалы, Билли Драго сыграл одного из лучших злодеев, хоть и одна серия, но потом даже по сюжету отчасти сочувствуешь этому злодею, по ходу этой серии узнаëшь все обстоятельства из его прошлого, что у него крыша поехала после трагической гибели дочери, а в той аварии в чëм-то были виноваты и эти жертвы персонажа Билли Драго. Хотя конечно это не оправдание, что он решил мстить с помощью порчи (куколка вуду)
@fenriz218 Hey Bro, Billy and Brad in a movie would be aweseme indeed...! They might even call the film "BILLY AND BRAD" and it would be one WICKED film. I'd imagine a grim, dark, crazy, original flick, filled with ambiguity so that it would be really hard to say if this film is supposed to be a comedy or a scary movie. I wouldn't mind some well placed gore neither.

Good. Made our childhood
R.I.P. Billy. Thanks for all the great entertainment.
He's dead scary even when he's being a gentleman. THOSE EYES!
Drago is and will always be my favorite bad guy. He was great in delta force 2.
There will never be another low budget bad guy like billy! Rest easy
Sabe..eu era criança e lembro dos filmes dele que passavam no canal Bandeirantes.Minha tia dizia que eram filmes Trash,de baixa qualidade.

Good bye forever mister Drago from a french fan. Much charism, great actor but underrated :(
Such a great actor. Very handsome!
He’s laid back and crazy friendly off reel, but when that camera starts....

Billy plays some really evil bad guys in movies. He is fantastic!

Lejos el mejor villano,gran actor!!!!
"Where's Nitti?"
"He's in the car"
Billy Drago is cool! \m/
If there was a movie about Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, Billy would have been the perfect actor for it.
Have they still not made one about him yet? I watched a doc on him and if hex just changed his footwear each time he did something they wouldn't have known there was a serial killer about as he kept changing his m.o and didn't always kill them.But yes Billy Drago would be the part for him definitely
He looks like Rodney Acala, the Dating Game Killer as well.
He played villains so effectively.
My favorite villain.
love this guy, he's very awesome in Dark Moon Rising you guys have to see it
Great great great actor ! RIP
Rip♥️✨Handsome
God, I think he's very nice and gentle. How a person like him could portray such reptilians villains?
Замечательный экранный злодей.Светлая память тебе Билли
Un grande👏👏👏👏👏
OMFG... this is recent!!!!! He is GORGEOUS :D HAHAHA
Wooooo... Go Billy!!!
The untouchables love that movie !! Fucking Drago was beast
I remember how he scared the shit out of me as John Bly in Brisco County Jr. One of the truly horrifying characters from my childhood, those eyes, that voice...... and that creepy ass smile!! A truly sociopathic character, and Drago was absolutely perfect for the role.
TOOTALMENTE D ACUERDO PERO. MILLONES D PERSONAS QVIMOS SUS PELICULAS. JAMAS NOS OLVIDAREMOS D TAN EXELENTE ACTOR UNICO
"Bullets can not harm me!"
Legend rip
He does not need cosmetics to look terrifying. His face alone can be so intimidating.
Great actors all gone too soon
Rip Billy
He's awesome as Black Hand Kelly in tremors 4!
I like his neckles he's wearin :)
He's so creepy it's actually impressive
he would make the perfect ancient vampire
He was perfect in YRMW with Michael Jackson, Marlon Brando.
good actor perfect
Muy Buen BILLANO. Buenisimooo!!!
@fenriz218 that would have been brilliant actually. Michael Rooker and tom towles were great but brad dourif and billy drago could make anything seem seedy and dangerous.
Good eye, Thirteenthflooropen. I'd love to see one of Billy's winning smiles in person, as that lucky lady did in 1:52. :)
No way he was 5"11 RIP to a awesome actor
Lovely
Awesome =)
woah he seems so normal but he has this classic bad guy look to him
His eyes look scary as hell
His son played “Ed” on Northern Exposure

Теперь есть смысл глянуть эту серию.
1:52 haha, that was cute
c'mon treasury man, arrest me
Wow he is the same in real life!
He was married to the actress who played the maid in death wish 2
Frank Nitti lives.

Люблю этого сукина сына Драго

Billy always looked a bit stern and serious in his pictures. Was he this mellow in real-life?
Love you billy!!!! What movie are they talking about?!
Wolf moon, 2010
@user-ng7pn8dn6u thank you ^^
Dude looks so Danish
He's Romani and Native American
Where is this? The playboy mansion?
As I recall, it was at (or near) Raleigh Studios Hollywood, a block or so from Paramount Studios.
Very different from Frank Nitty and not as intimidating.
I think ... he's only 17 years older than his son! he was very young his son xD
