From his role as a part of Biff’s gang in multiple Back to the Future movies, to wicked Cal in Titanic, Billy Zane was once a reliably dashing presence on screens both big and small. He doesn’t seem to pop up to provide his quirky charm as much anymore, however, and we’ve wondered what he’s been up to recently. Zane has apparently been in over 20 different projects since 2014, and has an army of dedicated fans so why aren’t we actually seeing him? Here’s why you don’t see Billy Zane much anymore…and how that could change…
He’s not a leading man | 0:36
He can’t escape Titanic | 1:22
His TV series are flops | 2:02
He makes his own movies | 3:07
He’s busy selling chicken | 3:38
The return of Billy Zane | 4:52

tell him to grow some fking HAIR ! .. his best was when he had hair..put 2 and 2 together ..no one really likes the Mr Clean look
Billy Zane would have made a great Lex Luthor.
I live in Chicago and i ran into him at the millemnium park it was so cool!
In the film Dead Calm I thought that Billy Zane was a young good looking Marlon Brando, not having seen other films with him, except Titanic, in which I didn't relate his looks to those of a young Brando.
I loved The Phantom.
Zane is like the 4th wall of Actors. It's ok to break but it can't be the plot.
Those who know nothing can understand nothing
-Ansem
Ansem was his best character
Darkness
Voice is awful, sounds automated…
I loved the 1996 film The Phantom many did! The Phantom is role i think of when person mentions Billy Zane. I bought the dvd of the film
Billy Zane is a cool dude.
They forgot to add his brief cameo in the 80's sci-fi horror "Critters"… and some part in a Troma (Toxic Avenger creator) film!!!
Because he keeps unleashing the heartless. Billy: Return to darkness! Supreme darkness! Director: Cut! Get this maniac outta here!
So none of these reasons were an answer for your dumbass title… he has not gotten a good break since his older work. But Hollywood "would" still hire him if the role fit. This was fuckin stupid and a waste a fuckin time
Damn never realised he was in back to the future until just now lol
He's a leading man in my eyes. He's very handsome
Not a single mention of the fact that he played MARK ANTONY in the movie Cleopatra
I'm getting very Ethnic – Make Billy Zane into a mean tough NYC New York City Cop Called Kojak !!!
Two words, Lex Luthor!
But The Shadow was a good movie. Cunt.
It seems fate has not been kind to Billy Zane. Which is a real shame considering the talent and charm he has as an actor. I think people don't give him enough credit. Come on, people. Billy Zane deserves better than this.
He should be lex Luther ….
He acted in Valley of the Wolves : Iraq
He looks like Ben Affleck!
Billy Zane has become fat and ugly, and probably the true reason why Hollywood does not cast him anymore.
