Give me a sequel to Event Horizon or In The Mouth of Madness, not another Jurassic Park. Please and thank you.

Talking of which, make sure you watch Hunt for the Wilder people.

He may be the coolest male movie star, right up there with Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling.

Sam is an absolute legend in Australia & New Zealand. He has lived & worked in both countries from the beginning of his career. There will be universal rejoicing at this news.

It's always encouraging to hear someone is cancer free. I'm in year two of my battle with a blood cancer.

Thank you God for saving his life & God bless Sam✨🙏🏻 He is a true fighter. First he survived from dinosaurs and now he survived from beating cancer.

I mean, if I remember correctly, Spielberg wants to do a western next. I feel like he has the look for one.

That quote hits different when you consider how near-death experiences fundamentally reshape people's relationship with time and purpose. The psychology of post-trauma creative resurgence is fascinating.

Sweet! It is great that Sam Neill is now officially cancer-free! As for movies, what I would give to see Neill in a film adaptation of At the Mountains of Madness directed by Guillermo Del Toro.

Sam Neill says he is now cancer free after a five-year battle with blood cancer. The Jurassic Park star had reached a point where chemotherapy stopped working before CAR T-cell therapy helped him reach remission. Great news. #filmsky #moviesky #jurassicpark

Fairly upset that Variety referred to our beloved Sam Neill as a 'native Australian' in this piece, but SO happy to hear we are stuck with him for a while longer #fuckCancer
