Martin Hewitt: Actors & SKIN

Although actor Martin Hewitt originally envisioned a Shakespearean career, after appearing along side Brooke Shields in 1981's Endless Love, his career to a decidedly different direction.  Although he appeared on television throughout the rest of the 80's, including a brief sit-com role along side Endless Love co-star James Spader, success on the big screen wasn't in the cards.

Carnal Crimes (1991)

Elise is young and beautiful, her husband is no longer interested in having vanilla sex with her. But then, she meets the mysterious photographer Renny and experiences unknown measures of lust and passion.

Despite his good looks, and being a talented actor, Hewitt found his career following the similar pattern of other up and coming young actors who starred alongside female 80's sex symbols. So many actors who co-starred along with Brooke Shields, Bo Derek and others found themselves never able to repeat their early success.  Even actor Leonard Whiting, who was also directed by  Franco Zeffirelli, never repeated the success he had playing Romeo. 

Crime Lords (1991)

'Two ex-cops find themselves alone in their fight against the largest crime syndicate in the world - the Crime Lords. The action takes us from the streets of Los Angeles to the back alleys of Hong Kong in this buddy movie.'

By the time the 90's rolled around, Hewitt was mostly doing television guest spots and appearing in a half a dozen softcore, often straight to video releases.    After he career sputtered to an end, he briefly returned to acting, appearing in episodes of ER and JAG in the early 2000's.  To help pay the bills, Hewitt began a career as a home inspector in the 1990's, and although his agent still called about the occasional role, he was usually too busy with his business' to risk leaving his job for part.

'I really don't miss it my Hollywood career. I've got my own company. I live in a great area. I have great kids. I surf every other day. I've got it all as far as I'm concerned.'

Night Rhythms (1992)

'A radio talk show host is accused of murdering one of his fans while on the air and he must go on the run to somehow prove his innocence.'

It's ironic that Hewitt, the softcore male version of Shannon Tweed, co-starred along side Tweed in his last softcore film Night Rhythms.  Hewitt only has a brief butt scene in the film, darkly lit with blue light.  Check out Hewitt in Secret Games & Secret Games II: The Escort, (featuring one of my favorite Hewitt nude scenes) Below HERE:
