Surprise Oz cameos

I took three of my nephews to see the latest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie today and was pleasantly surprised to see not one, but two former Ozzies. I hadn't read much about who was in this movie beyond the basics, so I wasn't expecting them at all. Dean Winters showed up as a bartender, looking as bad-boy attractive as ever, while Robert Clohessy turned up as a deputy warden (heh), looking... er... portly? I guess that's the nice way to put it? I haven't seen him in anything in forever, so it was a bit of a shock - most Ozzies have aged fairly well; Officer Murphy... has not. Still, it's always fun to spot a native Ozzie in the wild.

Yeah, I recently saw Robert C. can't remember where, and I had to take a second look to make sure. It's always fun seeing the Oz cast pop up unexpectedly. :)

It is! The funniest part was seeing Dean's character be threatened and intimidated by Steven Amell from Arrow - I'm like, no that'd never happen, kick his pretty-boy ass, O'Reilly! Haha.

I absolutely LOVE Murphy and Robert Clohessy's portrayal of him, but.... yeah, there's a reason why all my pics of him at Oz Daily are from Oz or his earlier work. :/

I saw the first Avengers movie when it first came out and then again several weeks later when it was at a dollar (discount) theater. I can always pinpoint the timing of my Oz obsession because the second time, I sat up in my seat and gasped "That's Murphy!" when Robert Clohessy showed up on the screen for his cameo, whereas the first time I had no clue who he was. ;D

"That's Murphy!"

Lol, that's always my reaction whenever I spot him in something too - he'll forever be Murphy to Oz fans.
