Oooh, what a bold choice. Honestly, I think she can pull it off but man, what a soul crushing role to attempt. I applaud her for sure. Duuuude and it’s being done by Parker Finn! Oh I’m board 100% Smile 2 is right up Posession’s alley. Thanks for letting me know this is going to be made.

It was pretty bold of Spielberg to cast him in Jurassic Park considering that was one of the most expensive and biggest movie productions up to that point and he was relatively unknown.

I wonder if he ever got to see Montana.
He was just in Untamed with Eric Bana this past year. It’s Yosemite, but close enough.

Sam Neil Appreciation Thread


He's been in a lot of stuff.

Just recently I watched Peaky Blinders for the first time, and he was in seasons 1 and 2.

Also, last year I watched The Tudors. He portrayed Cardinal Wolsey.

Seriously. Can't mention Sam Neill without mentioning that banger.

But OP also spelled his name wrong, so I wasn't expecting much

I first saw him in Ivanhoe (1982). Great movie. He played the knight who was obsessed with Rebecca (played by Olivia Hussey) and he fought Ivanhoe for her life.

Hell always be Damien, the Antichrist to me. Thats where I first saw him, and he’s always had a creepy edge as a result.

As King Charles II in Restoration (1995) he chose Robin Downy Jr.'s character to marry a mistress because "I need a man who is far too fond of women in general to love one in particular."

He didn't say it, but It's good to be the King!
