Paul Walter Hauser

Paul Walter Hauser joined Sarina on this week's Plan B to tell her about his role in Clint Eastwood's 'Richard Jewell'.

During the 1996 Olympics a bomb went off at Centennial Park, killing 1 person and injuring 111 others.

That number could have been much higher if it wasn't for a quick-acting security guard called Richard Jewell.

At first hailed a hero, it wasn't long before the media turned against him in suspecting he was the perpetrator.

Clint Eastwood brought Richard’s story to the big screen last year and hand picked actor Paul Walter Hauser to play him.

Having originally stepped into acting as an extra on the movie Virginia, Paul caught the eye of the right people. He ended up being given a named role in the movie!

After a great couple of years in Hollywood, work unfortunately dried up. Paul was forced to return home and work in a bowling alley.

However, now he's back in Hollywood with a bang, receiving calls from big names like Spike Lee.
