- Sophi Thornhill17 oktober 2025I was blown away with Bana’s performance as Mark Chopper Read. It’s immediately easy to forget that Bana doesn’t quite look like the real life Chopper because his portrayal is just uncanny. He was able to capture his personality, twisted humor, mannerisms and chilling darkness incredibly well. It’s unsurprising that Read himself suggested Bana for the role after seeing him on a sketch comedy show and that Bana spent several days with Read and extensively interviewed people who had known him to prepare for the part. Bana plays quite the convincing villain.
