News about Bryan Brown

It's the Australian streaming sensation that has taken over the world. Fans are now calling for a Boy Swallows Universe-inspired tourist destination. The series, which is based on Trent Dalton's best-selling book of the same name, unfolds in '80s Brisbane, tracing young Eli Bell's life as he fights bullies, trauma, and crime.

Boy Swallows Universe's main filming location, which is one of Netflix's most popular shows, is a Queensland rental that last sold for $395,000. The 50s-era three-bedroom, one-bathroom weatherboard, located in Beenleigh, 35 kilometers from Brisbane, is prominently in the gritty Australian-made drama. The seven-part drama, starring legendary actor Bryan Brown, takes place in 1980s Brisbane and revolves around a young family that has fallen into a drug war.

The fittest part of Netflix's latest film Boy Swallows Universe has sparked a lot of buzz. In the hit new series, Slim Halliday plays a man who was charged with the murder of a taxi driver and has escaped from the notorious Boggo Road Gaol several times. In a blue singlet, Bryan displayed his fit figure and youthful appearance in the first episode.

The real life criminals behind the autobiographical novel Boy Swallows Universe, which has since been turned into a worldwide Netflix hit series, were a murderer and repeat armed robber. In the screen version of Trent Dalton's bestselling book, Arthur 'Slim' Halliday and Gary John Lawrence were long term prisoners of Brisbane's notorious Boggo Road jail, played by actor Bryan Brown and Travis Fimmel. Halliday was involved in Trent Dalton's childhood as a parent and babysitter, while Lawrence was the author's stepfather. Squalid Boggo Road, which was known in the 1980s as a protester, prisoners' rooftop demonstrations, as well as inmates' rats and bird lice, is almost as much a protagonist in the story as Dalton's mother, who goes to prison for heroin trafficking. In the first week of its debut, Boy Swallows Universe, which has sold more than a million copies and gained nine awards, has ranked at number five globally on Netflix.
