Russell Crowe Thriller ‘Bear Country’ To Begin Filming In Queensland In February With Australian State Doubling For L.A.

The movie is adapted from the Thomas Perry novel Strip by director Derrick Borte and Daniel Forte, co-writers on American Dreamer, about ageing but formidable L.A. club owner Manco Kapak, who is set to be played by Crowe. “The recent boost in productions opens the door for Queenslanders wanting to build a career in the screen sector, with Bear Country employing around 95 people, while generating an estimated $11.9 million for the economy,” he said. “ Bear Country will also provide crucial training opportunities for emerging crew through our Attachment Program which offers paid, on-set positions working under experienced industry veterans.”
