Michael Sopkiw was a handsome model-turned-movie star who appeared in only four movies throughout his career before being arrested and imprisoned by the DEA for a case involving him shipping marijuana. Like Mark Gregory and Giancarlo Prete, he starred in many US-Italian productions yet failed to find much success unlike the other two. He no longer acts after finding zero success and is currently the founder of Miron Violet Glass, a company specializing in creating extra-protected glass designed to protect the content of wine bottle imports.
