Casting - Davidson

After a series of gruelling auditions for the iconic role of Agent Davidson, we finally settled on the little-known, yet talented actor Lee Davidson, who ironically has the same surname as the lead character in the film, and even more of a coincidence, his first name is the L.E.E without the dots between them!

Lee Davidson

My co-worker and I have a very good working relationship with Lee, and have worked with him on many occasions, most recently on our Preliminary Task where he proved to be very adept at fight sequences. We have also worked with him on stage in a play called 'The Nero Complex', which can be viewed below. In this he portrayed the iconic role of Praetorius, and really brought a new dynamic to songs such as 'The Lady is a Tramp' and 'Life's a Happy Song'. The raw emotion that was balanced with the delicate poetry offered something special that not many actors can master.

 He has also had training in martial arts and enjoys sport, lending him perfectly to the role. Another reason for our decision was that he was by far the most muscle bound of all the people auditioning for the role, and that's the kind of thing we need for our action hero. It is clear to see that even from this early stage, Lee will bring his own into the character of Agent Davidson, and his performance will be something to be remembered.
