Vince Colosimo Part Of Body Of Lies
Editorial Review
After years of starring in acclaimed TV dramas and locally produced films, Hollywood is finally, finally taking an interest in Vince Colosimo. And what an interest.The former Secret Life of Us star will star alongside Hollywood heavyweights Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe in Ridley Scott's latest film Body of Lies. Colosimo headed to Morocco on Sunday to join the production, about a former journalist injured in the Iraq war, who is hired by the CIA to track down an al-Qaeda leader in Jordan.
The role is a huge step for Colosimo, who has filmed guest roles on US drama series The Practice and Without a Trace. Having won a best supporting AFI award for Lantana, Colosimo also impressed in Chopper and turns up in, on average, about every one in two Australian films.
He's done the right thing by hitching his wagon to Scott. It wasn't that long ago when a certain Russell Crowe was put in an ancient skirt by Scott, and he ended up with an Oscar for Gladiator. Similarly, Scott took Bana from Chopper praise to the international waters of Black Hawk Down. Next stop: steady Hollywood career for Bana, as Crowe was already enjoying.
Hang on.
