Actor Karl Urban catapulted onto the world stage as Éomer in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy. After starring in The Price of Milk and The Irrefutable Truth About Demons in his native New Zealand, Karl jumped into the blockbuster sci-fi film The Chronicles of Riddick, starring Vin Diesel. He portrayed another strong, silent villain in The Bourne Supremacy, and then returned to sci-fi with the lead role in Doom, co-starring The Rock.
In Robert Sarkies' Out of the Blue, Karl portrayed a police officer in the true story about a New Zealand shooting rampage. Pathfinder, an action-adventure film, has Karl helping his adopted Native American tribe to defend themselves from Viking invaders. His most recent work was as Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy in the 2009 blockbuster film, Star Trek, a role he will reprise in the sequel, tentatively set for release in summer 2012. (SOURCE) Karl is no stranger to television work with roles in Xena, Hercules, and the US television mini-series Comanche Moon. Karl Urban is known for his dedication to his work and his passion for his characters. From villains to romantic comedies, Karl has impressed directors and movie-goers alike with his talents. An actor who has not let imminent stardom interfere with his movie choices, Karl remains a hard working actor who lets his work speak for itself. News and UpdatesSunday 18th April, Melbourne Australia Supanova Pop Culture Expo played host to Karl Urban and his inqusitive fans. Just moments before Karl arrived for his Q and A panel, these photos were taken of the crowd gathered to hear him speak. The room was at capacity and some fans had to line the walls once seating ran out. Karl spent the next hour answering every question asked of him and sharing stories of his acting career. Everyone I spoke to had the same opinion of the event. 'Karl was awesome, hope he comes back next year.' Karl is looking forward to reprising his roles as Bones (Dr. Leonard McCoy, in "Star Trek"), and as Vaako ("The Chronicles of Riddick"). He also said that for the zombie appocalypse he'd want a pump action shot gun. :) [Reported by Anntarot]   |
