As striking as he is upright, Eric Bana is a true Leo star. And like many of the very best lions, no matter how much the Munich star embrace his work; his kids are of supreme importance to him. In fact, the Australian actor says he always ensures he works on films that his family can visit, adding, “The reason my kids come to the set is so I can always see them.” 

The Hulk star began his career as a stand-up comedian and has worked as a barman before he clinched fame and success. Interestingly, Bana gained popularity for making impressions of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, and Tom Cruise.

In 2004, the Hulk and Troy star Eric Bana has been rumored to replace James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) in MGM's and Eon Productions' 21st film in the popular franchise.  However, the rumor bears no fruit as Daniel Craig was chosen to play the famous British spy.

The gifted actor made his film debut in The Castle, later established himself as a prominent actor by portraying Mark “chopper” Read in the biopic Chopper, the notorious Australian underwood figure. The film became an international success and won respectable accolades around the world. Bana gained Hollywood’s attention by playing the role of American Delta Force Sergeant Norm "Hoot" Hooten in Black Hawk Down, the lead role as Bruce Banner in the Ang Lee directed film Hulk, Hector in the movie Troy, the lead in Steven Spielberg's Munich , and the villain Nero in the science-fiction film Star Trek.

To honour the exceptional actor as he turns 43 today. Friday Moviez wishes him a very happy birthday.
