Austin Butler put on an edgy display as he promoted his new film The Bikeriders in Sydney.
The Hollywood star, 32, has travelled Down Under from the United States to attend the much-awaited Australian premiere of the crime thriller at Sydney Film Festival. Just hours ahead of the screening on Thursday night, Austin was seen promoting The Bikeriders as he channeled his character by posing next to a Harley-Davidson.
The Bikeriders tells the story of Chicago motorcycle club The Vandals as it turns into a sinister gang, with Tom Hardy playing gang leader Johnnuy and Austin starring as member Benny
He cut an edgy figure in a black leather jacket, worn over a grey and red printed T-shirt, while posing on the motorcycle in front of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Austin, who is starring as lead Benny in The Bikeriders alongside a star-studded cast, appeared in good spirits as he posed in front of Sydney’s iconic landmark.
He is set to hit the red carpet later in the day at the Australian premiere of The Bikeriders at Sydney’s State Theatre. The red carpet will be rolled out as part of the Sydney Film Festival’s Special Presentations event, which comes four weeks ahead of the film’s July 4 cinematic release.
The Bikeriders tells the fictional story of a Chicago outlaw motorcycle club called The Vandals, and is inspired by photographer Danny Lyon’s 1967 portfolio of the same name.
