Remar was born in Boston, Massachusetts. He is well known for his role as Ajax in the 1979 cult film The Warriors, as Albert Ganz in the 1982 hit 48 Hrs. and as Dutch Schultz in the 1984 film The Cotton Club. In 1996, he played one of the main bad guys in Paramount's big budget action movie The Phantom, where he did his best to stop Billy Zane's superhero. Remar was originally cast as Corporal Dwayne Hicks in Aliens but was fired by director James Cameron a few days after filming over "creative differences" and replaced by Michael Biehn. Remar can still be seen in the film during a shot where the Marines are walking through the complex, but the audience cannot tell it's him because his back is to the camera and he is in full costume.^{[citation needed]} Nickname: City on the Hill, Beantown, Athens of America, The Hub (of the Universe)1 Location in Massachusetts, USA Counties Suffolk County  - Mayor Thomas M.
