"Every morning on Hunt for the Wilderpeople, my first job was wiring Sam Neill.
It’s an odd ritual, mic’ing someone up and being in their space before the day has properly started. Sam endured it in his stoic, calm way, and talking with him each morning became my grounding cue for the day ahead.
That’s him in the middle of all of us on set. A genuine, quietly spoken star who mentored the newer actors and was charming to everyone around him.
I heard the news this week while travelling, and it’s sat with me since.
The best people give so much to those around them without seeming to try.
Sam was one of the very best. "
My favourite Sam Neill film ‘Hunt For The Wilderpeople’
