1994 hit Once Were Warriors launched Calvin Tuteao's screen career. Although a small role – he was paid $800 over two days to play gang leader Taka – Tuteao found unexpected fame when his heavily tattooed face featured in the film's promotional posters. More widely recognised as doctor Victor Kahu from time in the core cast of Shortland Street, he stars in short film Warbrick and tele-movie Nights in the Garden of Spain.
Value your teeth? You like your pretty-boy face? Call you Michael Jackson – except we'll rearrange it for free. You think about that, boy, before you think about any patch.
– Calvin Tuteao, as gang leader Taka, talking to Nig Heke (Julian Arahanga) in the gang initiation scene of Once Were Warriors
