Filming for The Cup, the story of Damien Oliver’s Melbourne Cup triumph days after his brother died in a fall, began last Monday according to the official site.
Shaun has been cast as Lee Freedman, a well known racehorse trainer, who is a long time supporter of Oliver’s.
The Cup is based on the book by Eric O’Keefe and is expected to be wrapped up by Christmas, and launched next Easter. [Ref]
