#flashbackfriday If you thought my Silver Surfer character from FANTASTIC 4: Rise Of The Silver Surfer was all CGI, this behind the scenes photo from our shoot 15 years ago proves otherwise. CGI enhancements added in post production. .

No question, this has been the most challenging year in my sixty years on this Earth. But today is a good time to stop and count my blessings. If you are reading this, you are among those blessings for which I am so very grateful. #HappyThanksgiving
Born this day in 1960. Yep, that means I AM 60. I considered a dignified photo shoot, appropriate for a gentleman my age, but unfortunately for you, this happened instead. . Photo Credits: -Selfie on a timer. -Photo after effects by an app on my tablet (I always wanted to be in a Maxfield Parrish painting). -Pasties given to me last year by son-in-law @galenology , with the promise I’d work them into this year’s birthday photo. -Stuffed doggy “Zekey” given to me by @zahanson in 2003 after he heard I was allergic to real dogs, and Zekey travels with me ever since. -The guts to show this much skin at my age, thanks to wellness coach @steve_atlas . -Party hat, noisemaker, and sparkly lei from the party aisle of a cheap store somewhere close to home. -Boxer briefs by a designer who didn’t pay for an endorsement, and may not want their product on a scrawny old man to begin with. . #birthday #happybirthdaytome #shirtlessoldguy #pantlessoldguy #skinnyoldman #oldman #1960 #bornin1960 #60isthenew40 #AARP #actor #actorslife #quietbirthdayathome
#TBT With my big Brother Red @perlmutations , who turned an ageless 70 this week!!! Playing your little Brother Blue in Hellboy 1&2 was my absolute honor …. (and sorry about billy-clubbing you in that tasteless prison scene in Sons Of Anarchy). . #happybirthday #hellboy #abesapien #RonPerlman #dougjones #sonsofanarchy #SOA #brotherred #brotherblue #brotherfromanothermother
That’s a wrap on @startrek Discovery season 4 filming!!!

Uh-oh. It’s that time again for His Grace, Duke Douglas of Sealand to post a tasteless birthday photo. . #dougjones #birthday #nakedoldguy #1960

David Prowse 1935~2020 I never had the pleasure of meeting him, but as a legendary “brother under rubber” he will be missed. #davidprowse #RIP
Let’s #throwbackthursday for #mermay to a moment of giggling between takes on the set of THE SHAPE OF WATER with Sally Hawkins. We got tickled at the rise and fall of her head as I breathed in and out. . #tbt #theshapeofwater #shapeofwater #merman #amphibianman #romanticmovie #oscarwinner #oscarnominee #classicfilm #monster #creature #monstermovie #creaturefeature #specialeffectsmakeup #creaturefx #actors #actorslife #sallyhawkins #dougjones #actordougjones
#waybackwednesday to that time I played Roger North in the bizarre, quirky, hilarious JOHN DIES AT THE END (available on Amazon Prime). Written/Directed by the always fascinating @don_coscarelli . #johndiesattheend #rogernorth #dougjones #otherdimension #fantasy #comedy #quirky #amazonandnchill #actor #actorslife
Helen Chavez 1959~2020. When you graft a dear soul into your life, calling each other “little brother” and “big sister” for the 17 years she was in my inner circle of life, it is impossible to quickly sum up the loss and hurt I sat with yesterday at the news of her passing. (FULL STORY & MORE PHOTOS at: actordougjones.tumblr.com ). To say this smart, hilarious, caring, encouraging, loving angel will be missed is a painful understatement. Rest in God’s peace, my dear Big Sis / Webmaster Helen @helen.chavez.5 . . #RIP #HelenChavez
For your Saturday night viewing: While we wait for Star Trek: Discovery season 3 to air, here is a little sci-fi project I shot a few years ago as android/synthetic human “Dor Nevin” in this 1 hour pilot episode of “SPACE COMMAND”, with Voyager’s @robert_picardo . More episodes to come, as its indie budget is gathered bit by bit. Writer/Director @marc_zicree explains all in his intro. . TO WATCH: search YouTube for this bait & switch title: “The Greatest Star Trek Series You’re Not Watching – Full Episode!”.

“If I ever go looking for my heart’s desire again, I won’t look any further than my own back yard. Because if it isn’t there, I never really lost it to begin with”. ~ Wise words for our current day from Dorothy in “The Wizard Of Oz”. . #cartwheel #cartwheels #handstand #handstands #wizardofoz #wizardofozquote #shirtlessoldguy #hiatus #sabbatical #timeoff #timetoreflect #inspirationalquotes #inspiration #motivationalquotes #motivation #quarantine #saferathome #safeathome #lockdown #countingmyblessings
Today’s hideous message of hope is brought to you by my future lounge act, in which I hope to do really bad cover tunes.
