Bill Hunter (actor)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bill Hunter (born February 27, 1940) is an Australian actor.
He started out in Australian television in the 1960s, and became a prolific performer in television and feature films, in which he often played the strong, opinionated, archetypically gruff Australian whose exterior belies a softer heart.
Some of his most notable movie roles include Gallipoli (1981), Scales of Justice (TV miniseries) (1983), Strictly Ballroom (1992), Muriel's Wedding (1994) and The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994). He also provided the voice of the dentist in Finding Nemo (2003). In May 2007, he will return to his role in The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert in the Sydney stage production of Priscilla[1]. He also portrayed United Nations Sec. Gen. Spencer Chartwell in the American science fiction series Space: Above and Beyond
