Victor Gojcaj
Biography
Born March 9, 1983, Victor Gojcaj is an actor who was discovered by director Tony Scott during preparations for The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009). Scott was looking for people in New York to help coach actors, and Don Ferrarone helped bring Gojcaj to his attention. Scott was impressed and offered Gojcaj the part of Bashkin, also known as Mr. Grey, the most aggressive of the film's hijackers. At the time Gojcaj was 24. Producers objected to casting him in a big-budget movie and urged Scott to find real actors, but Scott persisted for months and finally convinced the producers that Gojcaj was his man. Gojcaj completed the filming successfully and was a real presence alongside John Travolta.
