The Australian actor Damon Herriman will play Charles Manson in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming crime drama exploring the Manson Family murders.
In 2012’s Django Unchained, Tarantino appeared in a bizarre cameo as an Australian miner, alongside the veteran Australian actor John Jarratt.
In Australian film and television he is known for playing an eclectic range of characters, often in supporting roles but with occasional gigs as leading man.
Herriman has also appeared in the US television programs Quarry and Battle Creek, which was co-created by the Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan.
