Yet another former Home And Away actor has landed a big movie role.
Brenton Thwaites, 22, will play Prince Phillip alongside Elle Fanning's Princess Aurora in Disney's big-budget version of The Sleeping Beauty, titled Maleficent.
Angelina Jolie plays the evil fairy witch, Maleficent.
Thwaites has spent the past week in rehearsals for the film, which goes into production at Pinewood Studios in Britain this month.
Of meeting Jolie, Thwaites said from London: "She was lovely - very open and very nice.
"She was very warm to all of us, which is great."
Originally from Cairns, Thwaites is relatively unknown, although that now looks like it could change pretty quickly.
He recently wrapped production on the Hollywood remake of Blue Lagoon with fellow Home And Awayer Indiana Evans.
"Hopefully this will open a few more doors," he said. "We'll see when I go back to LA."
For the record, Thwaites is single.
"I'm just trying to focus on my work at the moment," he said.
