Dean Cain's ICE Training Video Draws Mockery After Agency Posts It for Recruitment

ICE is using the footage to promote a broadened hiring drive that lifted age caps, advertising five-figure bonuses.

Overview

  • The 59-year-old actor was filmed at an ICE training facility in Brunswick, Georgia struggling with a wall climb, a tunnel crawl, and a dummy drag.
  • ICE posted the segment on its X account with a link to apply, presenting Cain as an honorary participant in the agency’s recruitment push.
  • Separate clips showed Cain firing at a gun range alongside acting ICE director Todd Lyons.
  • Viewers on social media widely mocked the performance, and actors John Leguizamo and Margaret Cho criticized Cain’s decision to align with the agency.
  • The hiring campaign has removed age caps and touts incentives including a $50,000 signing bonus and up to $60,000 in student loan repayment.
