Roy Billing

Veteran actor Roy Billing has acted in so many films, TV shows and plays, his CV runs to more than 10 pages. Often cast as the straight-talking everyman, Billing has also provided award-winning screen portrayals of rugby-playing priests (Old Scores), drug barons (Underbelly) and small-town mayors (The Dish).

One of the things I love about acting is that you never know what is coming up next. I could be twiddling my thumbs in Sydney one week and the next, be working on a film in the outback. Great for my airpoints tally!
