…… No, not Megan Fox. The Wild Girl is Brian Austin Green’s drama that’ll premiere Saturday night on the Hallmark Movie Channel. I’m really excited about it. Not only is Brian one of my favorite actors, the movie looks beautiful and sounds very, very interesting.
Below is an excerpt of an article about Brian and the movie – click the link at the bottom to read the rest. And be sure to watch The Wild Girl!
Brian Austin Green Finds Life Beyond 90210
Brian Austin Green understands at this point that not a lot of people are going to feel too sorry for him, given that he attained great fame at 17 on the teen drama “Beverly Hills, 90210.”
The series took him through his late 20s and nearly 300 episodes and a charmed existence that sees him as the long-time on-again, off-again boyfriend (and occasional fiance) of Megan Fox, who may well be Hollywood’s reigning sex symbol and “It” Girl.
So shed no tears for Green. At 36, he continues to have the world by the tail in many ways.
But that doesn’t mean that life is always a piece of cake, either.
The intervening 10 years have been far less consistent, more like a typical actor scrapping to land work. There were recurring roles on the sitcom “Freddie” (2005-06) and the drama “Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles” , along with other cameos and a few film gigs. But in the main, there has been nothing to approach “90210.”
“That isn’t to say that ‘Beverly Hills’ was 100 percent an amazing experience,” Green maintains.
“Overall, it was great. We were a really tight family. There was a bond there even through all of our differences and hating and loving each other. I still talk to Luke (Perry) all the time. It’s one of those things you feel you’ll never really be able to duplicate.”
But forgetting the past, Green now has a promising present and future both personally and professionally. While his relationship with Fox continues to grow and evolve, his career also has shifted gears. He is finishing work as the lead in the indie horror flick “Last Stop,” and he stars in the period drama “The Wild Girl,” a Hallmark Movie Channel original which premieres 8 p.m. Saturday.
In “Wild Girl,” set in the 1930s, Green portrays Ned Giles, an aspiring photojournalist who winds up entangling himself in a mission to rescue the kidnapped son of a rich Mexican landowner.
The film costars Oscar-nominated actor Graham Greene (“Dances With Wolves”) and is based on the novel “The Wild Girl: The Notebooks of Ned Giles, 1932,” by author Jim Fergus.
“It’s far more than just a cowboys-and-Indians story,” Green says of “The Wild Girl.”
“It’s an amazing story that’s set during a time when Native Americans were being completely annihilated, telling of a group of young adults who randomly end up on this journey to rescue a boy who’s been taken and in the process find themselves and figure out who they are. It depicts humanity at its best and at its darkest.” Read the rest of the wonderful interview HERE.
