Brad Johnson's Career, Life Explored

The Arizona native started his adulthood working on a professional rodeo circuit in 1984. So when a casting director spotted him wrestling steers in Wyoming, he was cast to appear in a beer commercial.

From there, he became a Marlboro Man for the brand and posed in several Calvin Klein ads before entering Hollywood, officially.

He initially appeared on a 1986 episode of "Dallas" and "Nam Angels," which opened the doors for him to land a role in "Always."

Johnson famously worked for director John Milius in "Flight of the Intruder" and in the miniseries "Rough Riders."

The actor got more spotlight when he played the lead role of Rayford Steele in the three "Left Behind" movies.

Among his other works include "Ned Blessing: The Story of my Life and Times," "Lone Justice 2," and "Lone Justice: Showdown at Plum Creek," among others.

Before his death, Johnson had been tapped to play a role in "Treasure Valley." However, his scenes were not filmed following the sudden death of actor-writer Jay Pickett.

Aside from his fans, his family is the most heartbroken especially since the members believe he was taken "too early."

"Brad greatly enjoyed improving and enhancing land, in a way that maintained and respected its natural beauty. He always felt most at home outdoors, and his passion for the land made that evident. As much as he loved cowboying, hunting and land, Brad loved nothing more than his family," Johnson's family said.
