Eric Bana as Henry deTamble

The Time Traveler's Wife blogSponsored Blog Post: Australian actor Eric Bana stars as Henry deTamble, the time-travelling librarian in The Time Traveler’s Wife. Bana began his career as a comedian and gained notoreity in Australia for his impressions of actors Tom Cruise, Arnold Schwarznegger, Sylvester Stallone and tv detective Colombo. His performance in Chopper in 2000 was a career highpoint; gaining 30 pounds and transforming into a fat, bald, disturbed killer, Bana won several awards, including three from the Australian Film Institute as well as notice from fellow actor/producer Brad Pitt who chose him for the role of Prince Hector in Troy.  After filming The Time Traveler’s Wife, Bana filmed Star Trek, which required him to shave his head. When reshoots were needed, the production had to wait until his hair grew back.
