One of the projects, Catching Milat, will be produced by Shine Australia and directed by Peter Andrikidis. The two-part series will be created for the Seven Network with Kerrie Mainwaring acting as producer, and will be written by Justin Monjo.
Asher Keddie And Rodger Corser are attached to Party Tricks, produced by Southern Star Entertainment Pty Ltd for Channel Ten. The six-part drama focuses on a female politician whose ex-lover runs against her during an election campaign.
Will Asher Keddie be playing Ivan Milat?
Focused only has one S. Just saying.
@Darcy, no, Tony Abbott .
@ Groucho, So Tony Abbott is playing Ivan Milat?
@Darcy, apparently Milat was offered the role of Tony Abbott but said there’s some things he won’t do.
@Joffaboy, Groucho is partly right, Tony Abbott is body double in the Peter Slipper scenes.
