The Hunter is a 2011 Australian drama film, directed by Daniel Nettheim and produced by Vincent Sheehan, based on the 1999 novel of the same name by Julia Leigh.[3] It stars Willem Dafoe, Sam Neill and Frances O'Connor.[4] Dafoe flew to Tasmania for the film's premiere at the State Cinema in North Hobart.[5]
In the film, a shadowy corporation ("Red Leaf") sends mercenary Martin David (Dafoe) to Tasmania to track down a thylacine, a supposedly extinct animal whose genetic code holds the secret to a dangerous weapon. The film opened to the Australian public in cinemas on 29 September 2011.[6]
