‘Wrestler’ actor accused of beating college kid with velvet rope
Here’s a tip college kids: when a tough as nails doorman/actor/ Blackberry commercial guy tells you to ‘shut the $#@$# up’ and ‘Get the &$%^ out of here,’ you should probably listen.
Wass Stevens, who starred as Nicolas Cage’s brother in “World Trade Center” and appeared in the “Wrestler” with Mickey Rourke, has been charged with attacking a college kid with the metal end of a velvet rope, Page Six reports.
University of California at San Diego student Peter Pak wanted to take his engaged friend inside of Avenue in New York, but Stevens, the club’s popular doorman, was not having it, Page Six said.
An argument broke out and Pak and his friend did not ‘get the $%$$ out of there’ as instructed.
“(Stevens) lifted the rope and tossed the end metal part at my face,” Pak told Page Six. “My head cracked and I fell to the ground. I had to go to the hospital for a CAT scan. There was no internal damage but I had huge blaring headaches.”
Stevens, a 45-year-old former boxer born as Mark Wasserman, was charged with assault and possession of a weapon. He was later released from jail. His lawyer says he’s innocent.
Stevens has many acting credits. Most importantly he’s the first actors in that Blackberry Curve “What if delivery guys ran the world?” commercial.
He has appeared on “Ugly Betty” and “Law & Order: Criminal Intent.” Stevens was Nick Volpe in the Wrestler and a drunk driver in some film called “Quality Time.” He’s a video store clerk in an upcoming film called the “Last Days of Summer” and will appear with Richard Gere’s upcoming flick “Brooklyn’s Finest.”
