"Did I mention, delighted to be working with these old friends again? It's a dinosaur movie. I am unable to confirm whether Jeff will be taking his shirt off again, sorry. I'm a lot greyer now, but they are much the same," Neill wrote on Twitter.
But there's more… In September Neill attended the San Sebastian International Film Festival in Spain for his movie Blackbird, in which he stars alongside Oscar winners Kate Winslet and Susan Sarandon.
He is also in Rams, another Aussie movie about a decades-long feud between two sheep farming brothers that comes to a head when disaster strikes their flocks.
He is scheduled to film The Guinee Pig Club, directed by his Sleeping Dogs director, Roger Donaldson, alongside British actor Richard E. Grant, a movie about Kiwi born plastic surgeon Sir Archibald McIndoe, who risks his life and career to save injured British pilots during World War II.
And he is also poised to squeeze into his hectic schedule the film Freedom Flight — the true story of a hijacking by unarmed students fleeing Communism.
Sam, we salute you.
