My belief is that if I can achieve that level of entertainment by making the audience happy or sad or angry, then I have succeeded as an actor and have done my job. The profits and the fame as an actor will eventually surface, but first and foremost comes the work as an actor.

Remember big Benny O'Donnell from Dazed and Confused? Or that nefarious bounty hunter William J. Johns in Pitch Black. Even if you don’t, you must remember that despicable villain Carter Verone from 2 Fast 2 Furious -- that's Cole Hauser the actor for you ladies and gentlemen.
About Cole Hauser's Real Height
Cole Hauser looks like a big guy in his movies -- he is a big guy in real life as well. He looked ridiculously big and strong in Dazed and Confused especially – as big as Ben Affleck who was already 6 feet 2½ inches tall at that time.
Cole Hauser’s height is listed as 6 feet 1 inch all over the internet. After comparing Cole Hauser’s height to that of people like Vin Diesel (5’11½”), Paul Walker (6’2”), and Vince Vaughn (6’5”), we think there is a good chance that Cole might bit shorter than 6’1” -- he still looks quite big though.
Interestingly, Cole Hauser's son Ryland is even bigger. He is around 6 feet 4 - 5 inches tall and his weight is 225 lb (102 kg).
The height of Cole Hauser is
6 ft ½ in (184 cm)

It's always fun to play someone like an action hero that you always wanted to play as a child. I think every young boy loves that as a kid.
