Thrusty Thursday: Karl Urban


Continuing my celebration of yesterday's sale news, I thought I ought to source a Wellingtonian for this week's thrustin'. You may know actor Karl Urban as Bones from the latest Star Trek incarnation, Éomer from the second and third Lord of the Rings films, a Russian baddie in The Bourne Supremacy, some sort of villainous vampire in that new Priest movie, or even as Julius Caesar in Xena: Warrior Princess…or from any of his many other appearances in movies and television.

For your enjoyment, a grainy but foxy interview about Urban's choice to stay in New Zealand, dealing with stalkers, and working with Nimoy:

  1. He seems to have stolen Brad Pitt's forehead, but I like him anyway.

  2. Wow, you're right! I'd be hard pressed to look at side-by-side photos of his and Brad's befuddled brows and tell the difference.

  3. Well. Isn't he just cute as can be? Brad Pitt's forehead and all.

  4. I just saw Priest on Tuesday, and he makes a fine-looking vampire!

  5. ooh, I LOVED him as Bones in Star Trek. He captured the cranky, orneriness of the original Bones perfectly.

    Plus good-looking man as a vampire = Win. ;-)
