Yesterday's #CNN report on the #UK film boom is significant for working actors. For those of us already working across Europe, this validates what we've been seeing on the ground. Having recently moved back to #Athens, #Europe feels like the right place to be.

Why big movies are giving up on Hollywood in favor of Europe | CNN

The film industry in the UK is in the midst of a boom, with major studios and streamers moving productions to British shores in their droves. BFI chief executive Ben Roberts explains why the UK has be...

Good morning peeps. A jaunty little smirk from a lakeside path.

Or, since I'm learning now: Καλημέρα παιδιά. Ένα χαρούμενο μικρό χαμόγελο από ένα μονοπάτι δίπλα στη λίμνη.

Do you mean how to get started out in voice acting? Or with specific characters?

Re different accents/characters, I listen to loads of interviews with people who have the voice I'm after. It often helps.

I got to see several of the talks there; very interesting indeed and just great to catch up with other like-minded people :)

So it seems that while I might not have to bother too much about Social Media as an actor, if you're starting out then it's pretty much an obligation. You MUST have it if you want to make it as an actor and you're under 30!

Well that was fun. Back again today for more. Very good to meet like minded people, take a break, and generally soak it all up.

First, the trailer is not available in Greece!

Second, can we please stop using Greek letters to represent what they don't mean? Right now the title says: GRSSK MOTHSRS NSVSR DIS.

Not a promising start.

Going over the script before the torturing, pain, and suffering begins. And the filming as well.

Study of an actor 'preparing': 70% waiting, 20% forgetting your next line, 10% this exact pose. Someone took this and made it black and white so now it looks like I'm contemplating the human condition instead of just trying to remember where I put my sides.

I love open air cinemas. Last night in Exarchia; classic film.

So it's time to move on to Version 2.0 of the latest screenplay - a lot of the writing I simply do by speaking and having it transcribed directly to the page. Saves me so much time. And using FadeIn - my script writing software of choice. Happy writing, people!

We can't say much yet, but we've been quietly developing a project that's keeping us up at night: THE PENITENT.

All we can share right now is this face. This man. This title.

Some stories demand to be told. This is one of them.

More soon. 🙏

I don't know. There is something about a hat that makes a man... different. I think we should bring back headgear like this.

This from a recent shoot in Corfu.

From The Count of Monte Cristo shooting in Malta. Great day shooting with Sam Claflin; we shared memories of Norwich between the shots where we both grew up :)

Throwback to the very first series I did in Greece, way back in 2007! Λατρεμένοι Μου Γείτονες which is now on Mega Catchup OMG!

Fun while it lasted :)

Shout out to the cast and crew of the new Smaragdis film, premiering later this year: #Kapodistrias, about one of the founding father of modern Greece.

I play Mason, the British spymaster who tries to thwart Kapodistrias' plans for an independent #Greece. Shot in #Romania and #Corfu.
