Acclaimed Australian actor and author Matt Nable is excited to be able to add ‘movie director’ to his career highlights.

Transfusion, starring Sam Worthington, is directed by Nable in his first try in the chair.

Matt Nable told Deborah Knight he wrote the film specifically for Sam Worthington’s role.

“It was really important his role was undertaken by a father of young boys, which made Sam perfect for it.”
