Playing a guy whose baby son is abducted in the BBC/ABC psychological drama 'The Cry' was one of the most challenging roles in Ewen Leslie’s illustrious career.
October looms as a blue-ribbon month for Australian high-end drama with the premieres of 'Pine Gap' and 'Fighting Season'.
The US rights to Matchbox Pictures’ Safe Harbour have been acquired by Hulu.
Matchbox Pictures’ 'Safe Harbour' was one of the most superbly produced, critically acclaimed and deftly promoted Australian dramas of recent years: so why were the overnight audiences on SBS relatively low?
After their first collaboration on the SBS/Matchbox Pictures psychological thriller 'Safe Harbour' Ewen Leslie and director Glendyn Ivin are teaming up again for 'The Cry'.
“There are some directors, when they come knocking, you essentially go, 'I will play a horse in your movie.’ It doesn’t matter if it’s a small role.”
Ewen Leslie has spent much of his illustrious career playing basically good men who are in challenging situations. His latest roles in Matchbox Pictures’ 'Safe Harbour' and Goalpost Pictures’ 'Fighting Season' are in that milieu, but each with intriguing nuances.
Writer-director Priscilla Cameron’s debut feature 'The Butterfly Tree' will be released in cinemas in the US, the UK and Russia following deals announced at the American Film Market.
