Ben Mendelsohn

Summary: Ben Mendelsohn has been a leading man in the Australian film industry since he was a teenager. But interestingly, it wasn't until his 40's that Ben was able to crack Hollywood. A lead role in the 2010 Australian film 'Animal Kingdom' was the eventual catalyst for Ben to break-out in the USA with roles in the 'Dark Knight Rises' and 'Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'. His more recent critically acclaimed work in the Netflix series 'Bloodline' has helped earn Ben the reputation of the most underrated Aussie in Hollywood. In a fascinating tale of perseverance and determination, Ben Mendelsohn walks Jenny through his rise from couch surfing to 'Star Wars'; proving that good things come to those who wait (and keep working).
