In 'Meet the Deedles', Paul Walker may have come off as a dumer-than-dumb surfer dude, but the way his film career has been going, the guy's gotta be pretty savvy! He's got two hot movies coming out soon - One shows off his comic capabilities, the other lets him dig into his deep, dramatic side. First up is 'Pleasantville' with Reese Witherspoon, about friends mysteriously caught in the weirdly wholesome world of a '50s sitcom. Then Paul gets serious with Claire Danes in 'Brokedown Place', a based - on - true - stories account of American teens jailed - some for life! - In Thailand. By the time his next film, 'Varsity Blues' with James Van Der Beek, hits the screen in early 1999, you'll be a die - hard Paul Walker fan. "Honestly, I never thought I would be lucky enough to make a living doing something I love," says the California - raised actor who surfs 15 - foot waves for fun. "I really have the best job in the world."
