Rhys is excited to appear in the show, in a part that was written for him by Ellie Beaumont, the creator of Dead Lucky.
“I still had to audition for it to show SBS I could do it, but basically [Ellie Beaumont] told me ages ago ‘I’m doing this thing and I’ve got a part for you’.”
The series will also feature the familiar faces of Rachel Griffiths (Brothers & Sisters, House Husbands), Ian Meadows (The Wrong Girl, The Moodys), Annie Maynard (Upper Middle Bogan, Paper Giants), Brooke Satchwell (Jack Irish, Wonderland), Matt Nable (Jasper Jones, Barracuda) and Justine Clarke (Hoges, Red Dog: True Blue) – just to name a few!
“I am thrilled to be starting Dead Lucky with world-class storytellers Ellie Beaumont and Drew Proffitt,” Rachel said.
“To be able to work with our incredible crews and make content here in Sydney that can meet an international market is a dream and privilege. I am just glad I don’t have to be dead to be so lucky!”
