ThaGazBoi Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Sharni's love pays 3 April 2008 Herald-Sun FORMER Home and Away actor Sharni Vinson's decision to follow her heart to LA appears to have paid dividends for her career. The 24-year-old actor has been cast in a new television mini-series called Scarlet, which also stars her boyfriend, CSI:NY's AJ Buckley. The show, to be released in the US next month, is directed by David Nutter, who also directed Jessica Alba in Dark Angel and Lena Headly in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Before leaving for the US, Vinson said she was terrified of leaving her friends and family. "I don't know a single person over there apart from AJ and it is pretty scary,'' Vinson said. "I've always dreamed of being in films and now I'm chasing my dream. I'll give it three months and if things don't work out, I'm coming home.'' It looks like she need not book her return flight in a hurry.
emmasi Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 "I've always dreamed of being in films and now I'm chasing my dream. I'll give it three months and if things don't work out, I'm coming home.'' lol, that's the spirit I was just talking about signs before. I think you posting this is a sign that I don't need to be too freaked out about Cassie leaving forever, because it means that Sharni's getting on with her life and doing fine. So thanks
carmelle Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 I'm really happy for her. I'm going to miss Cassie but this means I can look forward to seeing Sharni in new shows.
Lesley Bee Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 That really great news for Sharni, i wish her every success
claire_louise Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 I think, and hope, she'll do well. Not only is she a brilliant actress but she's not your stereotypical blonde barbie-doll. She has a distinct look and I think that could help her - the girls from H&A who are doing well in LA seem to be the ones who are a little bit different, like Isla and Tammin. I suppose they need something to distinguish them from the hundreds of US actresses. Fingers crossed for Sharni, although I'd like to see her back in Summer Bay for a visit one day!
ThaGazBoi Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 http://www.scarletseries.tv/main.aspx?lang=gb_en The trailer is on that site, features Sharni in 2 scenes.
carmelle Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 It looks like it's going to be a good show.
DinerLandlord Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 I'm happy for her, I hope she does really well. Her handling of the HIV storyline was so impressive, I hope she gets roles that allow her to show off her talent like that, really dark dramatic roles.
