Xavier has joined a judging panel for OPTUS ONE80PROJECT.
‘twilight’ star joins optus one80project judging panel
’Twilight’ star Xavier Samuel got one of his big breaks after appearing in the 2008 winning OPTUS ONE80PROJECT flick, ’Dream Life’.
And now the thespian – who has recently gone on to bag a starring role as Riley in the ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ – has returned the favour.
The actor will be one of the judges deciphering 2010’s winning film.
Xavier said: “The OPTUS ONE80PROJECT is a wonderful initiative that encourages and nurtures emerging filmmakers. I was part of the ‘Dream Life’ cast in 2008 so I’m thrilled and honoured to continue my association with the project this year on the judging panel, alongside some stellar industry figures. To coincide with the launch of the project, the winning entry from last year, ‘Dungoona’, will premiere at Event Cinemas, Bondi Junction tonight (Dec 7) at 6pm – and will be aired on MTV, Channel 124, Sunday, December 13 @ 9PM [AEDT].
Directed by Grammy-nominated Reuben Field, ‘Dungoona’ stars Logie winner and star of Underbelly, Kat Stewart, Darin Berlin, and 17-year-old acting discovery Natasha Bassett.
The OPTUS ONE80PROJECT is a joint initiative between Optus and MTV Networks Australia, in association with BlackBerry and Event Cinemas.
‘Dungoona’, premieres on MTV Sunday, December 13 @ 9PM [AEDT].
