Wiki Biography: Trevor Goddard was born in Croydon, Surrey, England on October 14th 1962. His parents, Eric and Clara, and baby Trevor moved to Bromley, Kent, where he grow up. As a natural athlete, Trevor was highly interested in sports. As a youngster, he played football (soccer) and cricket and enjoyed running and all kinds of sporting recreations. But his greatest passion was boxing. He was a light heavyweight with 60 fights and he lost only one fight and has a record of 1-1-1 in boxing. He was also called to fight in the U.S. And he did came in America in 1986, with couple of his friends. Trevor and his mates enjoyed a lot in their stay in New York. Trevor also bought a car. After three weeks of entertainment and relaxing in NY, Trevor phoned his father and, with heavy hearts, he told him "I'm going to try to make it here, Dad. I like it very much. I'm in love with the country, I like the people". His friends returned home and Trevor remained in the U.S. In the early 90s, he began a career as an actor. Trevor worked on TV a lot. He made guest appearances on TV series (such as "Baywatch" (1989) and "Silk Stalkings" (1991)), until he landed a leading villain role of psychotic, yet charismatic, "Keefer", in Men of War (1994), starring an action star, Dolph Lundgren, and opposite Kevin Tighe, Catherine Bell, Tom Wright and BD Wong. From that moment, Trevor was usually type-casted as crazy, off-beat villains. That was confirmed in Mortal Kombat (1995), a popular video game-based-upon motion picture. Trevor played a criminal called "Kano", with his rugged looks, physique and rough voice, he made this "Kano" internationally famous, even with his Australian accent (although he was English-born, Trevor had quite an ability to mask his accent to Australian), even in upcoming video games. Trevor played supporting roles in such films (usually action films) such as Illegal in Blue (1995) (V), Yesterday's Target (1996) (TV), Fast Money (1996), Prey of the Jaguar (1996) (V), Assault on Devil's Island (1997) (TV), with Hulk Hogan, Carl Weathers, Billy Drago and Martin Kove. He appeared in a few dramatic comedies such as She's Too Tall (1999) as a crazy-in-love parking lot attendant and in Some Girl (1998) as "Ravi". He appeared in an uncredited role in Gone in Sixty Seconds (2000), opposite such names as Nicolas Cage, Angelina Jolie, Robert Duvall, Vinnie Jones, Timothy Olyphant and Delroy Lindo, and also in When Billie Beat Bobby (2001) (TV) for TV. Once again, an international fame came with the popular TV series "JAG" (1995), where he appeared from 1998 to 2001 as "Lt. Cmdr. Mic Brumby". This show made Trevor a well-known person to the world audience and he got a large number of fans. Trevor played his first and only leading role in Hollywood Vampyr (2002) as a gothic vampire called "Blood". His last film was blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003), where he utters the line "Say goodbye" to Orlando Bloom's character... alas, "Grapple" (Goddard) was dispensed pretty fast in the film. On 7 June 2003, Goddard was found dead in his home in Los Angeles, California. He was 40 years old. His death was ruled as accidental. Trevor Goddard will be missed by many, were his fans or not, he will always be remembered by many people.
