Russell Crowe
Born 7 April 1964, in Wellington, New Zealand.
His breakthrough came with the powerful Australian film Romper Stomper, released in 1992, about a group of skinheads in urban Melbourne.
<b>Wise words:</b> "I'd move to Los Angeles if Australia and New Zealand were swallowed up by a huge tidal wave, if there was a bubonic plague in Europe, and if the continent of Africa disappeared from some Martian attack."
