ALEX WILLIAMS offers a determined performance beyond his years when he plays the lead role in UNDERGROUND – THE JULIAN ASSANGE STORY. It’s a gentle and nuanced performance for the recent WAAPA graduate and he holds his ground against some excellent Australian talent in RACHEL GRIFFITHS and ANTHONY LAPAGLIA.
It was a fun conversation with Alex and we discussed not only his amazement at landing the role, but also his research to play Assange and the international credit and attention it’s drawn him already. This interview should prime you for his performance on Sunday night, 8:30pm on Ch10 – a cracking telemovie from the network that has surprised with quality drama offerings throughout 2012.

Great interview with Alex Williams. I interviewed Julian Assange from London this year for my http://www.2ue.com.au programs. I agree that Alex and his portrayal of the young Julian was sensational . He is a rising new star to watch. Well done Molks – Tim Shaw
