New Zealand’s Hunky Hollywood Hotshot, Cliff Curtis

New Zealand's Hunky Hollywood Hotshot, Cliff Curtis

Cliff Curtis, the man who jets home to New Zealand from LA for 24 hours, and rubs shoulders with the likes of Bruce Willis, Johnny Depp, and Anthony Hopkins, would rather sacrifice making it “big-time” in Hollywood, than live outside of his native New Zealand.

Star of River Queen, Whale Rider, Sunshine, Die Hard 4, and a dozen other Hollywood blockbusters, Clive Curtis says he doesn’t want to be “pigeon-holed” into his typical bad-guy terrorist, drug-dealer, gangster role.

NZ Herald reports that Curtis is still paying off a mortgage in his home town of Rotorua. (Now that sounds a bit silly to me.. while choosing not to become a Hollywood “mega-star”, surely you make enough money to wipe out a mortgage?)
