Born in Broome, Australia, in January 1996, Brandon Walters had already endured and overcame a difficult thing than acting before he even got involved with the film industry.

At that point in his life, Walters had seen only a handful of movies, with The Matrix (1999) and Toy Story (1995) being among his few favorites.

How Brandon Walters first Got into Acting?

In around 2007, the director of the movie Australia (2008), Baz Luhrmann, searched for someone to play Nullah’s role. He was specifically searching for a young aboriginal boy for the part.

That same year, one of Luhrmann’s casting directors noticed Walters. After that, Walters’ mother, Janie wright, soon got a proposal letter from Luhrmann himself, which noted that he was very interested in casting Brandon in the movie. 

Brandon did not know who Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman, the movie stars, were before he got this movie offer. He was a boy who was more interested in racing cars and taking care of animals than in acting at that point. However, Walters —who was enthusiastic and apparently, a natural at acting — learned horse-riding and singing just for the movie.

Consequently, he got selected for the role and portrayed Nullah perfectly. The movie kickstarted his acting career.
