On today’s pod I have special guest ‘Alex Williams,’ the actor tasked with the intimidating honour of playing ‘Shane Warne’ in ‘Warnie.’ 

The two-part drama series ‘Warnie’ will air over two nights on Sunday, June 25 at 7pm and Monday, June 26 at 7:30pm on ‘Channel 9’ and ‘9Now.’ 

Warnie looks back on the life and times of cricketing legend ‘Shane Warne’ and I will say it is not just for cricket fans.

Williams is no stranger to portraying real-life personalities, with his credits including the role of ‘Julian Assange’ in ‘Underground’ and ‘Kirk Pengilly’ in ‘Never Tear Us Apart: The Untold Story of INXS.’

I will say that there is a lot of controversial opinions in the media and I chose not to mention ‘Simone’ or their children - as I didn’t think it was fair on them or of ‘Alex.’
I will talk about the decision to take on such an iconic role and if this mini series is too soon. 
We will hear how ‘Alex’ created the essence of ‘Shane Warne’ and how he would get into character.
‘Alex’ will talk about his relationship with the sportsman and what he learnt playing the role!

Plus we will get plenty of exclusives from behind the scenes of ‘Warnie.’ Including why audiences should give this series a go.
