The actress from Home and Away hopes to make a name for herself in Hollywood action flicks.
Jacqui Purvis, actress of Home and Away, has her sights set on Hollywood. In fact, she has revealed her daring tendencies and ambition to appear in “Bond girl”-esque scenarios. She has even spoken about her aspirations to be a “Australian Tom Cruise.”
While the next season of Home and Up will see a “fiery comeback,” according to the blonde bombshell, there is still plenty of action bubbling away behind the scenes.
In the 2022 season finale, Felicity, played by Jacqui, was completely consumed by flames as a result of a tragic vehicle accident she experienced while travelling to Tane Parata’s wedding.
We want a Bond girl, Jacqui declared.
Fire bars were installed all around the automobile. When the gas was turned off, I was completely engulfed in flames. Because I didn’t really need to act, it was fantastic. The heat was pretty spooky, and I could feel it.
Jacqui added that she had “the best shooting experience” of her life while filming the scenes that viewers are going to see.
“There were stunts, it was action-packed, and it was just so much fun. It was the largest shoot I’ve ever done.
However, the action does not end there. Jacqui expresses her hope that some of her “wish list” ideas would be adopted other writers.
I absolutely welcome the opportunity to perform my own stunts because I enjoy action movies, the actress stated.
How awesome is it to have a job where you get to do all these things that you never get to do in your regular life? You get to experience it firsthand while also being able to return home, act normally, and indulge in some chocolate.
A car pursuit, an underwater drowning scare, and even a significant fall are already on her list of ideal action scenes to shoot in 2023.
Jacqui claims that the emotional components of playing an action star are just as difficult as the physical ones, particularly the agony her character goes through after a car accident.
Felicity will be attempting to deal with the crash’s consequences in a way that is not ideal and is actually highly harmful to her.
There is definitely a possibility that someone could pass away. And to find out if and who, the audience will be glued to their seats.
“It’s chaotic, action-packed, and there is a lot going on. She is headed to what ought to be someone’s happiest day in life.
You’ll have to wait to find out, but either way, [fans] will be stunned and upset.
