From Home And Away To Hollywood: One Of Our Favourite Soap Hunks Heads To The Big Screen

If you snuggled up to the beautiful Brax when he was on his recent trip to Ireland, you could have been getting cosy with a up-and-coming MOVIE STAR.

We're not joking. Hollywood has beckoned the Home and Away heart-throb Steve Peacoke to Hercules.

The Australian soap opera announced the news on their official Facebook page today. 

Hercules is currently in pre-production and is set for release in July 2014 from Paramount and MGM Studios.

The soap said that Steve will film in the coming months before returning to his role as Brax in Home and Away in September.

Steve himself says: "This is an incredible opportunity for me to experience film on a massive scale, work with a world-class director, actors and two of the biggest studios in the world.

"I’m grateful Seven [production company] is allowing me time out to get a taste of that world."

Brax, we always knew you had the potential to become a Greek god...
