Acting

[edit]

Has John Erwin actually been acting since 1928. This would make him how old by the time he did He-Man in 1983? And the fact that he's still around (though not as prolific) This info about him being in the acting biz since the 1920s was probably obtained from the IMDB. No birthdate given and he is most definitely still around. Though it's not impossible that he is much older than we thought (based on his He-man voice), the only thing I see prior to 1960 is a movie from 1928. That is a 32 year gap. Could this John Erwin from 1928 actually be someone else?Mr. ATOZ 18:03, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good question. I've always thought Erwin was up there in age, but not THAT high. John 04:49, 5 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, you can see how old John is in a '90s Intel Pentium II "Baseball" TV commercial where he plays the radio sports commentator. He sounds just like Prince Adam from He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and the radio announcer in Back to the Future Part II. He does look up there in age.

What year was he actually born in? Wikipedia and IMDB state 1936, but Wiki Grayskull and Behind the Voice Actors both say 1948. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.1.143.128 (talk) 00:03, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
