  • His character of Cupid was originally written into the Xena: Warrior Princess season 5 finale episode Motherhood but Urban was unavailable because he was filming THE LORD OF THE RINGS elsewhere in New Zealand. As compensation, Rob Tapert wrote the season 6 episode When Fates Collide specifically for him, this time for his more popular character of Julius Caesar. Tapert also used this episode as an opportunity to bid farewell to two other fan favorite recurring characters; Alti and Brutus, portrayed by Claire Stansfield and David Franklin. When Fates Collide became one of the most popular episodes of the entire series.
  • Was introduced in the second installment of the three big franchises he has appeared in: THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE TWO TOWERS (2002), THE BOURNE SUPREMACY (2004) and THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK (2004).
