For those familiar with the iconic novel ‘Boy Swallows Universe’ by Australian author Trent Dalton and for those who love an incredible book adaption, get ready to be thrown into the orbit of the Netflix series adapted from the book.
The seven part series paints an emotional, challenging yet hopeful story of Australia in the 1980s and a young boy by the name of Eli who is simply trying to keep his family together amid drug deals, jail time and push for a better tomorrow.
When Aussie actor Simon Baker caught up with Entertainment Reporter Justin Hill, he admitted there was something from the set he couldn’t help but pocket and take home as a memento…
Justin also caught up with Vikings star Travis Fimmel who plays the role of Lyle, the questionable step father of the boys in the story. He was joined by author Trent Dalton who revealed the iconic items they found on the set that really made it feel like it had been taken directly out of Trent’s life and how much Aussies love an F-bomb…
