According to a explosives-obsessed ward Tiny Tina). Since turning to acting, Munteanu has also played the character Razor Fist in Marvel's Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, which is set to debut this summer.
Krieg's appearances in Borderlands to date have not featured a lot of what you would normally call 'dialogue' – the hulking psycho primarily communicates through a variety of screams, grunts, and unintelligible jabbering – at least up until his Borderlands 3 DLC storyline, Psycho Krieg and the Fantastic Fustercluck. But that doesn't set him apart from the rest of the Borderlands crew by all that much, come to think of it.
As improbably as Krieg is rendered in the Borderlands games, Munteanu has managed to build the physique for the role. He's a big lad.
