He is in an Australian film called "The Big Steal" made in 1990. Its a comedy and he is a good guy in it.He plays a slightly awkward teenager in high school trying to win the affections of the beautiful, popular girl . In fact, he mainly played good guy roles until "Animal Kingdom" in 2010. That film got him noticed in Hollywood . But just before tht he had a rough patch where he couldnt get roles for some time. Its great to see him succeeding and getting more widely known now .

@Janexcalibur 5 жыл бұрын

That's how he got involved with Marvel. The directors of Mississippi Grind are doing Captain Marvel and asked Ben if he wanted to play the villain.

Ben Mendelsohn played roles like Sean Penn (school days) did but on Australian TV and movies, he played the silly school boy, but in that movie there was a seen that I am sorry to say that most boys and maybe girls do - the scene was at a shopping center and Bens character is looking around saying "I would do her, she's alright, 8/10" the point to this, nothing but Ben is another great actor doing well in the big world.
