Richard Roxburgh
Richard Roxburgh (born 1 January, 1962) is an Australian actor, who has starred in many Australian films and has appeared in prominent supporting roles in a number of Hollywood productions.
Born in Albury, a small city on the New South Wales-Victoria border, he attended NIDA and appeared in a large number of Australian productions through the 1990s. His first supporting role in a blockbuster was in Mission Impossible 2 in 1999, but it was perhaps his eyecatching role as a villain in Moulin Rouge! in 2001, that attracted attention.
He dated Australian actress Miranda Otto for some time. He is now engaged to Italian actress Silvia Colloca, who he met during the filming of his latest film, Van Helsing, where he played the role of Count Dracula.
His credits include:
- Van Helsing (2004)
- League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003)
