Movie Extra
Have been an extra in a new sci-fi thriller the last few days. Today I actually was given lines, how good is that.
My first time as a movie extra and this has happened, has it happened to others on here?
Doing more work next week that involves helicopter action which should be fun.
The fight scenes are awesome, but there are so many takes for different angles.
Movie will be released early 2016.
Will let you know the release date when it gets closer.

Was an extra in the Last Samurai 10 plus years ago in New Plymouth. Unlike you I was only trusted to mill about in a crowd.
The weird thing was how the ahem.... stars treated the extras. Some of them (no names ) had the production crew inform the extras, that under no circumstances were you to make eye contact, or even think about thinking bout speaking to them (arrogant twats), while others were like humans and would speak and joke around with every one.
Being 6 feet 5. I was also not allowed in the same shot as the midget 'star' of the movie, as his lordship is only 5 feet 6 and would only come up to my shouldersLast edited by anfield5; 24th February 2015 at 19:54.

The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

Playing the part of an evil Doctor controlling a brainwashed scientist crew.
Has been an awesome experience, the actors have been great, plenty of jokes.
What has been great has been being involved in the fight scenes with fighting all around me and me ducking out of the way.
Finish shooting this weekend, then they wreckon the movie will be out early next year.2007 Australian Rally Champion Driver Class P3

Had to do some re shoots of scenes on Monday as we had a new star - Billy Zane to work with.
Talked cars a bit with him, he's quite keen to do movie that involves racing or rallying.
Watch this space for maybe a collaboration

This is my ride this weekend, doing car chase and crash scenes for the movie. I'm the stunt driver. Had fun today, mostly chase scenes, got a bit of air a couple of times. Can't wait to see how it all looks in the movie.
Feel very lucky to have had this opportunity, gone from being an extra to having lines to now being in car chases, how good is that.2007 Australian Rally Champion Driver Class P3
