    Eric Bana Comedy

    In 1993 Eric Bana made his television debut on Steve Vizard’s late-night talk show, Tonight Live.

    His performance gained the attention of producers from the sketch comedy series, Full Frontal, who invited him to join the show as a writer and performer. Eric became popular with the show’s audience with his impressions of Columbo, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, and Tom Cruise.

    Eric Bana Chopper

    In 1997, Bana was approached by director Andrew Dominik to appear in the film Chopper (2000), a biographical film based on the life of the infamous Australian criminal Chopper Read. Bana shaved his head, gained thirty pounds, and spent two days reading to perfect his mimicry for the role.

    He received positive reviews on his act with Roger Ebert, an American film critic, stating “in a comedian named Eric the filmmakers have found, I think, a future star … He has a quality no acting school can teach you and few actors can match. You cannot look away from him”. His performance won the Australian Film Institute Award for Best Actor.

    Eric Bana Hulk

    In 2002 Eric Bana was featured in ‘The Nugget’, the film portrays the effect of instant wealth on three working-class men. He was offered the role of Bruce Banner in the film adaptation of the popular Marvel Comic book series The Incredible Hulk while filming ‘The Nugget’.

    After he learned that director Ang Lee was involved in the project, he considered taking the offer and even agreed to work on the film before the final script was complete. He admired Lee for his work on the film ‘The Ice Storm.

    He was drawn to the film because “the character of Bruce Banner had dramatic potential” and was “a fairly non-traditional superhero”.

    The film (Hulk, 2003) received mixed reviews and a moderate success at the box office, but Bana’s performance was praised: Jack Matthews of the New York Daily News felt that Bana played the role of Bruce Banner “with great conviction”. Eric Bana earned an Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films nomination for “Cinescape Genre Face of the Future” for the film.

    Eric Bana Troy

    Likewise, Bana co-starred with Brad Pitt in the big-budget film Troy in 2004. He played the role of Prince Hector, leader of the Trojan forces battling against the Greek warrior Achilles. The film was an international success, grossing US$364 million, with US$133 million in the US.

    Bana’s bankability in big-budget films was questioned by critics after the disappointment of Hulk and Troy. Eric Bana responded in Empire Magazine: “It’s not like it [Hulk] was a flop. When you’re on a long shoot it is a long personal investment. If I wasn’t happy with the end result I’d be bloody upset, but in every case so far I’ve been happy. Troy could take $50 and I wouldn’t regret it.”

    Eric Bana Star Trek

    Eric played the role of villain Nero in Star Trek. Bana revealed during an interview that he was Star Trek: The Original Series fan while growing up although he said that his love for the show wasn’t the drive for him to sign up but the script which he called “awesome” and said he could not resist being a part of the movie.

    He once described his role as a ‘cameo’ but sources later revealed that his characterization of the role as being a “cameo” was an understatement and that Nero was much more than that. Eric later clarified his statements in an interview, saying:

    ‘…what I mean is that in the context of the roles I usually do, the weight is firmly on other areas … It’s not one of those roles where you’re carrying the movie, is what I’m saying. I feel like I’m very much in a supporting role, not one of the main guys. … It’s a luxury to not be in that position. It’s nice to be offered a part like that.’
