A NEW SHANE WARNE BIOPIC HAS FANS IN A SPIN
PUSHING BOUNDARIES

No sooner had it been announced, Channel Nine’s Shane Warne miniseries sparked serious controversy. Many thought producers were ‘cashing in’ after the cricketer’s death in March 2022, while others felt it shouldn’t be made at all.

Despite the backlash, the cast of Warnie stand by the show, insisting it was made with care and the utmost respect.

Alex Williams, who leads the two-part drama as Shane, says: “Obviously it was sensitive. But once I’d read the script and saw that [writers] had been working on the project for seven years or so, I knew that it was coming from the right place of authenticity and love.”
