As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for Hollywood trends and a deep appreciation for the Australian landscape, I must say that Phoebe Dynevor’s latest venture into filmmaking is nothing short of exhilarating. Her journey from portraying Daphne Bridgerton to battling sharks Down Under is a testament to her versatility as an actress.


Phoebe Dynevor has kicked off filming on a new $30million shark thriller blockbuster in Melbourne.

Actress Regé-Jean Page, aged 29, has been keeping occupied by filming an as-of-now unnamed thriller in Mornington, which is located southeast of Melbourne, during this current week.

On Monday and Tuesday, as reported by The Herald Sun, the actress participated in filming scenes alongside Djimon Hounsou, known for his role in Gladiator, down under.

Production is not only happening in Victoria’s Macedon Ranges for filming, but it’s also being arranged in Canterbury, located in Melbourne’s east, and at Docklands Studios, too.

Although specifics about the film remain secret, locals are casually calling it ‘the shark film’ due to its apparent focus on sharks.

According to earlier reports by The Hollywood Reporter, the movie’s plot is centered on a town facing shark attacks amidst a hurricane.

In the upcoming film, Phoebe will join forces with Whitney Peak, known for her role as Zoya Lott in the latest Gossip Girl reboot, and Djimon Hounsou, who previously acted alongside Russell Crowe in Ridley Scott’s hit movie Gladiator.

The as-yet-unnamed project is currently being developed by HyperObject Industries, the production company of Adam McKay and Kevin Messick, renowned for their works such as “Don’t Look Up”, “The Big Short”, and the hit TV show “Succession”.

The movie is being helmed by director Tommy Wirkola, known for his past works such as the gory horror film Dead Snow and the action-packed thriller Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters starring Jeremy Renner.

As per the statements made by Minister Colin Brooks, who oversees the creative sector in Victoria, the movie in question is benefiting from backing provided by the state government via the Victorian Screen Incentive Program. This support is expected to generate approximately 700 job opportunities locally.

The production will reportedly inject $30million into the local economy.

Prior to appearing on camera, Phoebe spent a while in Queensland, where she had the chance to interact closely with local wildlife at Silky Oaks Lodge.

In an Instagram post, the British celebrity uploaded a set of pictures showcasing her fun moments with kangaroos, observing crocodiles, and experiencing the beauty of a lush rainforest.

“Phoebe shared that she had an enchanting stay at Silky Oak Lodge, which is nestled within the ancient rainforest, the world’s oldest,” (paraphrased)

“What an incredible experience to explore the ‘lungs of the earth’ – the Great Barrier Reef! Living the Australian dream, I’ve been fortunate enough to immerse myself in its breathtaking underwater world by snorkeling.”

Following the confirmation of her engagement, Phoebe is now engaged to American actor-turned-influencer Cameron Fuller.

Hey there! I’m a die-hard fan here, and let me tell you about Cameron, 28 – the offspring of the legendary American horror movie director, Brad Fuller. If you recall, he made his public appearance alongside Phoebe back in March of last year. Quite a captivating duo, if you ask me!

At the Met Ball in New York last month, Phoebe subtly showed off her estimated £100,000 ($190,000) round-shaped engagement ring, but it wasn’t until a few days afterwards that the news of their engagement became official.

Her actress mother Sally Dynevor spoke of her happiness at her daughter’s jovial news last month.

61-year-old Sally shared with the Loose Women daytime program that her daughter has recently become engaged. She described the groom-to-be as incredibly handsome and a truly kind individual.

‘I’m so, so happy. I’m thrilled, it’s actually made my year,’ she added.

Phoebe is best known for portraying Daphne in Netflix period drama Bridgerton.
