Thanks for watching me, a humble American, react to Top 10 Actors You Never Knew Were Australian Check out their channel : / top10beyondthescreen Thanks for subscribing for more Australian reactions every weekday!
Here’s a few … Nicole Kidman … Chris Hemsworth … Eric bana … cate Blanchett … Heath ledger …. Sam Worthington … Simon baker … guy Pearce … Naomi watts … Isla fisher … Geoffrey Rush …rebel Wilson … David wenham … Mia wasikowska … Abbie Cornish … Yvonne jaqueline ………. More and more films are made here it’s becoming quite a scene .
Anthony LaPaglia is the one that can really freak Americans out, particularly older ones, as almost his whole career has been playing an American. He came back for the film Lantana and flawlessly dropped straight back into his Aussie accent.
I'm sure that I read somewhere that LaPaglia required a dialect coach in order to reacquaint himself with the Aussie accent for his role in Lantana (but that may also have been an urban myth!)
He is a South Australian he comes from Adelaide. So does SIA. (The singer) Mel Gibson (Madd Max) n Paul Hogan (crocodile🐊 Dundee) are also Australian Russell Crowe is from New Zealand .
Yes, American accents are easy for us to do because we grew up watching Get Smart, Gilligan’s Island, The Brady Bunch etc after school. We heard more of those accents than we heard of our parents. We also saw a lot of British TV so we can do their accents too.
lol easiest way to do an American accent is pretend for a minute you’re mentally disabled but are incredibly self-absorbed and undeservedly arrogant and… nope that’s it, that’s how to get into the mindset of an American.
To most Aussie actors, breaking into Hollywood is the ultimate acting career achievement. Our TV and film industry is pretty small and they get paid nothing compared to the industry in the US. Mastering the American accent is a necessity for this.
@@silenttitan416 I would say it is quite easy for us, mainly due to the amount of American influence, shows and stuff that you would see around. For example as a kid there were quite a few kid/cartoon shows that were American that would have crept in. As a teenager social media and youtube would have American figures unavoidably present as well. In turn Americans would mainly be shown stuff from America and not really know how, for example to mimic an aussie accent well.
Ryan, about your Australian accent, all I can say is don’t give up your day job. As for actors, Australia produces lots of TV sitcoms, dramas etc. movies as well. Mad Max actor Mel Gibson was born in America, but you might as well say Australian where he grew up. Robin Williams was a guest on an Aussie TV program called The Project and was asked what he thought of Australia. He said, “Australia has nine of the worlds most dangerous animals, not counting Mel Gibson with a cell phone. 😹 You will be shocked to know that the lead actor in, “Skippy the bush kangaroo,” is actually Australian. (The kangaroo ha ha.)
And Ryan, re your Australian accent - pretty bad. In particular in one of your videos you were trying to say barbie and it came out barbay. OMG surely you didn’t mean that. There is not one America or other nationality who can get anywhere near it. Just because you use words/phrases like G’day mate, drongo, fair dinkum etc doesn’t mean you sound like an Aussie. And…….while I’m at it I might as well put in another beef. For the thousandth time koalas aren’t bears. I still love Americans 🇺🇸
Might also be worth mentioning Errol Flynn, Peter Finch, Rod Taylor, Rick Springfield, Helen Reddy and Guy Pearce. Olivia Newton-John was born in the UK, but raised in Australia.
Yes, Errol was a famous but this audience wouldn’t know so many B/W movies. I am Aussie, family on both sides moved here early/mid 1800’s from many Euro connections.
Eric Bana, Ben Mendelsohn and Simon Baker, Dacre Montgomery and Jai Courtney are also Australian actors that have some success in the States. There are other big names from Australia too but it would take a while to list them all
We have heaps of award winning actors and actresses. Loads came from Aussie soaps like Home and Away and Neighbours. Missing Isla Fisher, Simon Baker, Rebel Wilson, Chris, Liam and Luke Hemsworth…
How she could miss Chris Hemsworth (Thor), one of the most beautiful men in the world. Also Sam Worthington (Avatar). In fact there are many more but these two are some of the the top actors around.
I think what she means about being better at American accents than some Americans is that they can do a range of the regional accents, whereas some American actors can only do their own - like Robert De Niro always sounds like Robert De Niro, or Matthew McConaughey always sounds like Matthew McConaughey.
I was chatting to a Professor of Linguistics who was saying that you can list accents from most difficult to easiest. Australian is towards the top, most US accents are towards the bottom. The higher your 'natural' accent is, the easier it will be for you to learn those 'lower' on the list. As to why, we have such a small local film industry, that the actors have to be able to do lots of accents. Also, a lot of US films are filmed in Aus (it's cheaper).
Not contesting the linguistic professor at all but I would note that in Australia (and arguably most of the rest of the world) we have a lot of exposure to movies, TV, podcasts etc from the USA so from an early age we hear American accents of all kinds and often. Its little wonder then we can picked them up easy. Whereas how often does an American hear an Australian accent. I suspect rarely.
@@mathewaitken938 I agree with you... however you may want to check out Amy Walker... her YT channel is amazing... she is the only American yto nail an Aussie accent! She is extremely talented and is from Seattle, Washington.

Hugo Weaving grew up here in Oz, who always referred to Keanu's character as "Mr Anderson" who was one of the Matrix nasties, Smith. Also Russell Crowe became a real actor here in Australia. I personally think Hugo is one of the best actors I've ever seen & Kate Blanchett is the best female actress on the planet. Also Guy Pearce who was in LA Confidential with Russell & Kim Basinger is an amazing Australian actor.
Guy Pearce is one of those actors who can do anything, has been in many movies but isn't always aknowledged or recognised. His filmography is amazing. I recently saw him in Brimstone where he played the scariest, evil Reverend in an old west setting. Some of his notable performances are in Pricilla Queen of the Desert, Memento, Brimstone, Jack Irish, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Time Machine, and many others.
A few more.Guy Pearce,Hugo Weaving(Matrix),Toni Colette,Miranda Otto,Melissa George,Magda Szubansky(Babe),Isabel Lucas,Martin Henderson,Radha Mitchell(Man on fire,Pitch black)
I don't think that strictly true. Kate Winslet in The Dressmaker did a perfect Aussie accent. And also Dev Patel in "Lion." They're both British. And there's also an American actor, I forget his name, but he won an award for playing the killer in the Tasmanian mass shooting. It's not a movie i would watch but I saw a clip when they won the award and he was pretty bang on. Probably the best I've heard from an American. Usually they are atrocious at it.
A lot of American movies are produced in Australia due to the currency conversion. It's cheaper to produce in Australia rather than in the States which is why there ends up being quite a few Australian actors in those American movies.
He was in Bootmen with Adam Garcia and Rouge and a few others years before before Avatar. Avatar was of course his breakthrough role. Thought his performance in Bootmen was really good. Understated but effective.
ABSOLUTELY.. OMG! He was soooo good.. but he’s such a nut bag in interviews.. he’s hilarious.. There is a movie he’s in which I LOVE.. and saw many many years ago.. and keep on looking for.. BAYTOWN OUTLAWS.. it’s fantastic .. and fun to watch..
@@hellabella8295 Yeah, he was painful in interviews. Just gave zero f**ks and would give three word answers. He makes Robert DeNiro look like Robin Williams. I remember seeing him in one where he was asked some lofty question about his dreams for his career and he just shrugged and was like: "I just want to make enough money so I can quit and buy a farm..."
He legit acts to pay bills for his family farm, iconic Aussie, doesn’t give the slightest of fucks about the game and fortune, just wants to make enough money to keep working the land.
Margot did not want to play Harley Quinn... Apparently she was concerned that playing someone that was insane would be damaging to her own mental health... but in the end she did it... She's also one of the few actors who can correctly use a trapeze... and she had classes with the children's circus school here.
Another Australian actor with a similar story is Heath Ledger, who did apparently get psychologically damaged playing the Joker in the "Dark Knight" which may have played a part in his eventual death.
A bit of history “On Boxing Day 1906 The Story of the Kelly Gang opened at the Athenaeum Theatre in Melbourne. It was the first multi-reel, feature-length film ever produced in the world.”
… and not to forget, Rod Taylor although he is from an earlier generation. What I find amusing is that he played the "Time Traveller" in George Pal's adaptation of the HG Wells novel. And in the remake, by Chris Wells, the same character was played by Guy Pearce, also Australian.
I think Aussies can do American accents because we grew up watching American movies and tv shows. You guys might have seen the odd Aussie movie here and there, but not many. And the reason Aussies end up in Hollywood is because that's where the money is.
It's a matter of analysis: you can nail ANY accent by understanding which syllable is emphasised in each accent. Australia = SubaRU, NZ - SuBARu, USA SUbaru. Americans emphasise "R" - hence "MelBORN". Easy!
@@notamoron2246 I think their sheet rigidity of attitude doesn't help. I get SO sick of the "it was very nice to meet you" thing! NO originality whatever. Met a few nice ones too - like the lady we met in upstate NY. We had stopped to buy a map and she asked us for directions 😂 We had a good laugh and then she went to buy a map!
Portia de Rossi, of course Paul Hogan who can't hide his Aussie accent and singer Peter Allen, Hg Weaving Ben Mendelsohn, Heath Ledger, Russel Crowe (Kiwi born) ^ Sam Worthington to name a few. Mel Gibson was a part-time Aussie going to school in Sydney from age 12.
If that was meant to be Hugo Weaving then despite living in Aussie for a good part of his life, he is actually English, not Australian - he was born to English parents in colonial Nigeria....
You should watch the movie "Two Hands" it's got Heath Ledger and Rose Byrne in it. Fukin really good movie 👌 ✌️❤️🇦🇺 much love from Ana in Queensland Australia 🤘🇦🇺
The reason Aussies can do a pretty good American accent is cos we're all raised on American tv and movies. Same reason we know about your geography from Jerry springer etc
Travis Fimmel was very well known in Australia as a model. Winning many competitions and even was a model for Calvin Clein. He had long blonde hair back then.
Ryan there are literally hundreds of Aussie actors working in the USA. it would amaze you of how many American movies are made in Australia. In Queensland Village Roadshow Warner have studios, in Sydney Fox Studios now owned by Disney, and in Melbourne Dockland Studios. Tv series like Le Brae, San Andraus were filmed in Australia, Marvel Studios have recently re located to Fox Studios in Sydney.
Also Julian McMahon aka Jess Lacroix in FBI Most Wanted. Also was in TV shows Charmed and Niptuck. Jesse Spencer plays Casey in Chicago Fire and was a Dr. in House, oh yeah, he actually had his own accent in that👍😊🇦🇺
Hugh Jackman is an alumni of WAAPA Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts in Perth This and NIDA National Institute of Dramatic in Sydney are both difficult to get into. Training is rigorous but produce incredible talent.
They forgot mentioning Andy Whitfield also from Australia who became famous for his portrayal of Spartacus in the TV-series "Spartacus Blood and Sand" who was a Historical Gladiator character. He sadly passed away from Cancer in Sydney in 2011 after the first season was released
Mel Gibson is American but he grew up in Australia. His Dad, Hutton won Sale of The Century. Mel still helps support our first Acting School. So many of our actors people think are yours and it has always been so. Way back to Chips Rafferty and Errol Flynn. Hugh Jackman opened two Australian coffee shops because he was tired of being poisoned by bad coffee. Hugh’s Aussie wife, Debora-Lee Furness was more famous here than Hugh before they moved over there. She decided to step back and start a family. Cate Blanchett was offered a job as the head of what productions go on at the Sydney Opera house. She came home and did that for 3 years but she was still there working too. Australia always calls you home. The one’s that stay here refuse to sound American. Most of them were hired over there for not saying where they came from but that is getting better. My adopted daughter was triple threat in the Australian Broadway Chorus. That is at the top of acting, singing and dancing. She had lead roles in stage musicals from age 10, she has a degree in Performing Arts and an another degree and her teachers were all Australian Actors, Singers and Dancers. You have to audition your way into that group but they saw her on stage and asked her to come in. She walked away from her career at 18 because she is Korean born, she knew as an adult her roles would become cleaners or prostitutes. You don’t know just how many different American accents there are to learn. My favourite is a Boston accent. You also don’t know how many more of your top actor’s are Australian, we are Chameleons. Yes, we have big movie studio’s here, most in Queensland. Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg have been making movies here for many years because the costs are way lower and who wouldn’t want to make a movie on a beach in tropical Queensland. Tom Hanks, his wife Rita Wilson were two of our first cases of Covid in Queensland. They were really great and went into one of the Hotels for two weeks. He never accepts special treatment. A few months ago Julia Roberts and George Clooney made a movie here. Julia went shopping on the Gold Coast for hats so no one would know who she was. She did not want people and press all over her and we mostly don’t do that. We knew which beach she was filming on, it is about an hour South of me but I wouldn’t just turn up to her work. That is rude.
Water Rats was filmed on & around Goat Island in Sydney Harbour. The building g constructed are still there. Lots of war history . It’s owned by National Parks. Can do day tours & go for the fireworks on NYE.
I'm surprised Mel Gibson wasn't mentioned. Born in America, but moved to Australia with his parents, at the age of 12, later training at the National Institute of Dramatic Art.
@@mehere8038 Yeah I know. He's certainly as nasty piece of work .. but at the same time .. a good actor. A bit like your Johnny Depp and Tom Cruise I suppose. The way I look at it is .. when Mel is making good movies .. he's an Aussie ... but when he's in a drunken rage .. he's American.🙄
@@davidhuett3579 I've just watched him in a DVD movie right now actually, "Father Stu", a recent one he did. sorry, but I couldn't get past the fact that he didn't belong & shouldn't have been in it. Felt like they were giving #metoo actors a go to see him in it. He wasn't good enough as an actor to validate using him in that imo. Actors are also role models, they know that when they choose that career & it's reasonable to expect them to live up to that imo & btw, that movie, if you haven't seen it, also has Jackie Weaver in it, how tf is she getting cast so much in Hollywood nowadays too? Her American accent is horrendous! She seems to be the "go to" actor anytime they want a mum character to ground the story. If not for her bad accent, she'd be fine in those roles, but her accent, imo, really is bad & if I think that as an Aussie, what on earth do the Seppos think of her Seppo accent? Mark Wahlberg is fantastic in it! & I just looked it up, it wasn't covid impacted, like I assumed it must have been, he gained 14kgs in 6 weeks for the film! That's commitment! What does Mel do that's on par with that? Russell Crowe does similar, Hugh Jackman does massive amounts of work to get his body right for Wolverine, Mel's not up to the same standard as the others, so with his "issues", he just needs to be dumped imo!
You might want to check out just how many of your Hollywood films are actually made in Australia. Lol. It's quite a few.....and we're talking blockbuster films! 😊🇦🇺
To be honest, even though we have quite a small population compared to America, the fact that we got this much famous successful actors is incredible. KEEP IT UP AUSSIES!!!
Thanks Ryan, another enjoyable reaction. (To get the Aussie accent closer, remember we say Aussie as Ozzie, not Ossie.) Something Americans find surprising is that Nicole Kidman's husband, country music legend Keith Urban, is also Australian.
@@lj8621 He was born in NZ, but he didn't become a singer there. He moved to Australia at the age of TWO where he was educated and developed his singing career. He actually holds THREE citizenships ... NZ, Australia and the US.
Australia has a huge film industry that has been around for probably as long as Hollywood. The 1st feature length film was produced in Australia. We have the ability to produce high quality work for a fraction of the price compared to Hollywood, which prompted some Hollywood studios to establish permanent studio lots. In the last few years we've surpassed Hollywood in technology.
You are confusing Hollywood with the American film industry. Hollywood was quite late to the game, from memory, around 1912 or so. The French invented the cinema camera with the oldest motion footage being the Roundhay Garden Scene shot in 1888 in England by the French inventor of the camera. However the world's first photographic motion footage was shot in 1880 by Edweard Muybridge depicting the motion of a horse. This is not generally considered movie footage as it was done by firing numerous cameras sequentially and not using a cinema type of camera where all the images are recorded by the camera onto moving film. The first American actual cinematic footage was Monkeyshines shot in either 1889 or 1890. Australian movie making started with the Salvation Army's Limelight Department who started in 1892 showing lantern slides but quickly followed with movie footage accompanied by audio from a wax cylinder gramophone. This is the first motion footage with audio but it would be several decades before this became common. This earliest Australian footage and their audio tracks no longer exist and the oldest surviving Australian film is The Humorous Rollerskater (Patineur Grotesque) made in 1896. So by that measure the oldest industries were 1/ French/British, 2/ American, and 3/ Australian. And of course there will be some who think that the Muybridge motion footage makes the US first. However, if including non-cinematic footage, the question arises - why not count motion footage that could be seen in devices like the Phenakistascope from the 1830's where drawings are animated on a spinning cylinder, and even earlier spinning disks that are thought to have been around for thousands of years. Since it is impossible to put an earliest date for simple animation, most put the cutoff for motion pictures at the invention of the cinema camera and The Roundhay Garden Scene. However all that early movie footage was quite short and several would be projected at one screening. The world's first feature length feature film was The Story of The Kelly Gang made in Australia in 1906, with L'Enfant Prodigue being made in France in 1907, and Les Miserables made in the US in 1909. So if counting feature length films the oldest industries are 1/ Australian, 2/ French, 3/ American. In all of this, one thing is absent - Hollywood. That came much later. Bet you didn't know that the earliest Australian motion pictures were made by the Salvos to preach the word of god :)
@@artistjoh I may have been unintentionally seeing the American film industry and Hollywood as the same thing. Interesting lesson on the history of film. Personally I would rate the oldest industries by when they started and not when they made their first feature. As for animation the reason it's so hard to track down its exact beginning is because it's well over 2000 years old. My best guess for the first animation is the shadow puppets that appeared during the Han dynasty in China.
Yeah, but the Australian govt gives the American film industry a lot of subsidies to film here for the Australian jobs... Disney totally cashes in on it
Anthony LaPaglia is an Adelaide boy!! GO RADELAIDE!!! Nicole Kidman belongs to a very famous Australian Pastoral family who owns large cattle farms and her father is a Psychiatrist (hence why Tom Cruise didnt like her family). The pic with the "fuzzy" hair was from her first movie, BMX BANDITS!!! (She was about 15!)
@@TheSpankingMonkeys Nope, not JUST an Aussie....give credit to his native country too....Aussies are good at forgetting that so many of their favourite icons were from other countries...John Farnham, Jimmy Barnes, Olivia Newton John, Malcolm and Angus Young of AC/DC, Naomi Watts, Guy Pierce, and Russel Crowe to mention just a few! Yes, they chose Australia as their home, but that doesn't change the fact that they are from other nations too!
@@shevaunhandley1543 LOL, I didn't think he was that bad as James Bond except in his Kilt, although Diana Rigg hated him, I read she used to eat raw garlic right before a kissing scene.
Most Aussies have grown up on a diet of American television, as well as the influence of the US movie industry. Our acting schools are very serious and the acting students are very highly trained. Unfortunately, Australia has a rather small t.v. industry, and although high quality, pays less than U.S. actor would receive. Our actors are dedicated and hard-working, but to make a full time, well paid career moving to America is often a necessity.
Yes, Australia has a large tv, advertising, documentary and movie production industry - and we have many excellent drama schools and theatre groups! 😁 She missed Jack Thompson, Julian McMahon ++++
Wagyu beef is very common in Australia. The number of movies made in Australia would amaze you. We have a great movie industry here with many talented movie makers.
Another Aussie in Once Upin A Time In Hollywood with Margot Robbie: Damon Herriman, who played Charles Manson. Think he's done another creepy role over there too. Yvonne Strahovski, TV, plays Serena Joy in the Handmaid's Tale. Danielle MacDonald played Jennifer Anniston's daughter (and titular role) in Dumplin' and has been in other films (a wanna-be rapper and star of Pattie Cake$) not usually blockbusters but a solid body of work. Only seen one mention of Toni Colette but she's nearly on par with Cate Blanchett in the types of roles she takes. Errol Flynn was Aussie (ever heard of the saying "in like Flynn"?). Hugo Weaving, possibly best known in older movie e.g. Elrond (I think) in Lord of the Rings trilogy, Agent Smith in the first three Matrix movies. Ben Mendelssohn, played villans in Rogue One & Ready Player One among other things. Peter Finch, Network. Jackie Weaver. Rod Taylor (Hitchcock's The Birds). Barry Humphries, as Dame Edna Everage, used to be on US & UK TV a lot, probably more in the 90s. Sarah Snook, Succession. Ruby Rose, Orange Is The New Black. Miriam Margolyes, Harry Potter series, took up citizenship in 2013 (has a delightfully naughty/filthy sense of humour; look up her appearances on three Graham Norton Show sometime). Chris Pang, Crazy Rich Asians. Annette Kellerman, the first major actress to appear without clothing in a Hollywood film in 1916 and started the sport of synchronised swimming. Could add in comedians Jim Jeffries, Tim Minchin; Ronny Chieng while not Australian (he's Malaysian & also lived in the USA) started his comedy career here while studying a double degree in law and commerce in Melbourne and made his first TV show here before landing a role in Crazy Rich Asians and now being senior correspondent at The Daily Show. Conclusion: There's a long list.....I've left out others for sure.
7:17 Yes, more films are being filmed in Australia as it can be done cheaper, and was already doing pretty well since the early 2000's. We've also dealt with covid fairly well by comparison and have taken advantage of that to boost our productions from Queensland to Victoria. There are some great Aussie productions you should check out, (not Neighbours or Home and Away!). Check out Kenny, Pricilla: Queen of the Desert and The Castle for comedies, and Wake in Fear, Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead and The Tourist for something thrilling.
@@lr5450 Now I wish I had've read it! I had to watch the original for film class, both versions are Aussie Cinematic Gems. While I'm here, I forgot to add Cargo with Martin Freeman. The Zombie film I never expected!
I had this question about Hugh Laurie. I'm Australian and when I watched House I thought he sounded a bit over cooked with his accent. I asked an American friend if was doing a good job of it and she said he was fantastic. And can I say Kate Winslet! Absolute slam dunk with the Australian accent . She is amazing!
Australia attracts some big films because it has isolated areas that can serve as an American backdrop of movies that can't have powerlines or time period giveaways (same applies to British back drops in period shows like pirates of the caribbean). Ps is this a secret way to stereotype Australians (He has the Australian gaze, she has an Australian girl look LMAO)?
Yes, a lot of TV series are produced in Australia. We do fewer sitcoms, a lot more dramas, and a couple of soaps that are apparently very popular overseas, particularly in the UK. Oh and then there's the reality shows, of course. Australia also makes some pretty awesome movies, although I think they rarely have a budget comparable to a Hollywood production. For example, the original Mad Max was made on a budget of $350,000.
Contrary to the video Rose Byrne has actually used her native accent on screen. She played an Australian in The Internship. Also Yvonne Strahovski from Chuck, Dexter, Tomorrow's War, 24 etc etc is also an Aussie.
If you want to watch Rose Byrne and Heath Ledger before they became Hollywood stars. They both starred in the same movie together and you'll actually get to see them both act in their o'natural voices in the hit Oz movie titled 'Two Hands'. Great movie to watch with the partner as it caters to both the guys and the girls. Very well written story, with an even more enrapturing journey. I don't see many movies be told this well, crystallised with it's clarity of vision, story and character being the focus.
I travelled around thirty of the US states and after six weeks ended up with a US accent . But I went to the UK and still had the strine (Australian) accent .
One of the biggest Hollywood stars to ever grace the Silver Screen came from Tasmania, Australia - Errol Flynn! The star of The Adventures of Robin Hood and many other films. For a long time he was forced to make what were called “swashbucklers” - pirate type movies with lots of sword play. He starred with Bette Davis in the period drama “Elizabeth and Essex” and Davis was not a fan of his acting. Many years later, after watching the film again, she said she regretted not acknowledging that Flynn was a better actor than she gave him credit for. It’s sad that older actors are often left out of these types of lists.
@@SusanMadge-vl9gx I’m sorry, you are wrong. He was born in Battery Point, a suburb of Hobart, Tasmania in 1909. I think you must be confusing him with some other actor.
a lot of wagyu and other specialised beef comes from australia .. but its a small fraction of I guess "regular" beef. we produce a lot more food than we need, but despite this cant much more increase our population .. water being the real bottleneck
Poppy Montgomery from the same show is also Australian. Apparently it was the first US TV show where the main male and female lead are both Australian.
Howdy Ryano. It's probably easier for us Aussies to bodgy up a reasonable American accent, our TV channels are full of content from the US. I see Savannah Guthrie from NBC was born in Melbourne. Janet Yellin's accent is like Elmer Fudds- I love it. Yours is Uncle Arthur from the TV series Bewitched. Hey hey, its Saturday. Enjoy your Friday!
I'm Australian and yes the American accents besides the Midwest accent are easy. Us Aussies can do almost every accent except the kiwi accent, NZ is actually quite hard to do
There's Robert Taylor from "Longmire", Ryan Kwanten from "True Blood", Simon Baker from "The Mentalist", Alex O'Loughlin from "Hawaii 5-O", Yael Stone from "Orange is the New Black", Keiynan Lonsdale from "The Flash", a bunch of Aussies in "Vampire Diaries", Ben Mendelsohn
Rose Byrne starred opposite Heath Ledger in the Australian movie Two Hands. Bryan Brown was also in this movie and all three spoke in their natural Australian accents. 🙂
lol the Aussie eyes - dude i was literally just checking out how amazingly blue your eyes are when you said that.... oh and I'm pretty sure the main reason us Aussies (and most of the rest of the world) can easily do the American accent is because we are inundated with American culture via TV and Film from birth it just becomes easy to imitate after a while
Missed Heath ledger, the Hemsworths (3 of the brothers). How can you miss them??? Hot, hot, hot. It’s genetic. Rebel Wilson, Isla Fisher,Anthony LaPaglia , Simon Baker
G’Day, doing an awesome job Ryan, keep it up. We have three major tv & Movie studios which are located on the east coast. Queensland, Sydney & Melbourne. Some blockbusters were also filmed here. NB: If interested you can lookup Cate Blanchetts Australian tv debut which while a uni student she performed on Red faces (Hey Hey It’s Saturday)as a contestant with other students. Stay Safe.
