Today we have an interview with two of the leads from the James Cameron produced Sanctum, Rhys Wakefield and Richard Roxburgh. You might know Roxburgh from his long and storied career as an actor in such films as Moulin Rouge! Where he played the moustache twirling Duke, Van Helsing where he played Count Dracula, or the villainous Hugh Stamp from Mission: Impossible 2. Meanwhile Wakefield is an exciting up and comer who makes his Hollywood debut with this film.
