Michael Vartan Eyes Life in Australia
US star Michael Vartan is in Melbourne for a third racing season in a row, with plans to move here permanently.
The Alias and Monster-in-Law star arrived in Melbourne yesterday to promote his new film, the Australian croc horror movie Rogue, and will attend Derby Day today.
"I would come here for the opening of an envelope," he said.
"I've truly fallen in love with this country.
"I want to move here one day if they'll have me.
"I love everything about it: the people, the atmosphere, the mentality, the difference of culture in the north and south, the landscape.
"Everything about this country is fascinating to me, I feel at home here, I feel free, I feel happy, no one cares what you drive, what you do."
Vartan shot Rogue in the Northern Territory two years ago. The most expensive horror film made in Australia, costing $25 million, Rogue follows a group of tourists terrorised by a 7m crocodile.
It was written and directed by Greg McLean (Wolf Creek) and opens on Thursday.
