    Eric Bana cuts a casual figure as he takes his dog for a stroll around Melbourne… after turning down jobs overseas and vowing to stay in Australia until the pandemic is over


    Eric Bana looked comfortable and casual as he took his pet poodle for a stroll around Melbourne on Friday.

    The 53-year-old kept a low profile as he sauntered around a residential area with the huge pooch, while wearing a white T-shirt, black jeans and sneakers.

    The Hollywood star was barely recognisable underneath a pair of sunglasses and a protective face mask, as he enjoyed a touch of exercise amid the city’s lockdown.

    At one stage Eric bent down to pet his fluffy dog, who appeared to absolutely love the attention.

    The sighting comes just weeks after Eric admitted he has turned down offers for roles in Hollywood to ride out the pandemic in Victoria.

    Speaking to the ABC, he said: ‘This might sound weird, but I just kind of… I don’t want to leave. Just in terms of what the city has gone through.

    ‘In terms of having the opportunity to go and do other things, it just doesn’t feel like the right time – It just doesn’t feel right to escape.

    ‘It sort of feels like we’ve gotten this far, you know, and you feel like you’re part of the tribe and… I just want to be here until it’s all over, and feel that sense of joy that everyone else will feel, at the same time.’

    Eric recently recorded the Audible podcast drama The Orchard in Melbourne.

    The podcast promises a ‘visceral and terrifying journey with a riveting and unexpected conclusion’.

    Eric voices police detective and struggling single parent, Adam Durwood, who is assigned to investigate the body of a teenage boy found on the grounds of the exclusive Nevermoor girls school.

    At the centre of the mystery is a coven of three beguiling and manipulative teenage girls who seem to know much more than they should and are slowly drawing Adam into a web he can’t see.

    When Adam’s daughter, Lily, is secretly befriended by the three girls of Nevermoor things begin to unravel.
