Cowboy paramedic

Trauma star New Zealander Cliff Curtis, who plays “the cowboy paramedic who’s equal parts Tom Cruise in Top Gun and Tom Selleck in Magnum P.I in the hit NBC drama, says ‘Rabbit’ is “probably the most fun character I’ve had in my career.” “The whole idea [of ‘Rabbit’] was to start off with this cliché – the Ray-Bans, the blue jumpsuit, the macho bravado – and the hope was that we get to know him a little bit better. He’s such a broad spectrum of possibilities: romantic lead, hero, bad boy. It’s been a really great opportunity to completely have a broad palette to play with.” Curtis next appears as a fire lord in M. Night Shymalan’s summer flick The Last Airbender.
