CAREER U-TURN Hollyoaks hunk lands huge new movie role alongside Damian Lewis and Tom Felton – four years after being killed off
He made a career U-turn and then another one!
A HOLLYOAKS hunk has landed a huge new movie role alongside some very famous faces.
Adam Woodward, who is best known and loved for playing Brody Hudson on the Channel 4 soap opera, will star alongside Damian Lewis and Tom Felton in a new movie.
The hunk, who got killed off in Hollyoaks four years ago, will be starring alongside the Harry Potter legend and several Hollywood stars after making a career U-turn and then turning back around again.
When Adam departed Hollyoaks a few years ago, he retrained as an osteopath, with him now re-entering the world of acting once again.
Adam’s character of Brody starred on the soap for more than four years and was a fan-favourite among viewers.
He quit the soap in 2021 when his character was tragically killed off by Warren Fox (played by Jamie Lomas) in a targeted hit-and-run.
His departure in 2021 came just a few years after he joined the soap in 2017, with fans gutted that the hunk was departing the Channel 4 programme.
During his Hollyoaks stint, Adam was part of some of the biggest and most controversial storylines of the soap to date.
One storyline saw Adam’s character Brody come face to face with his former school football coach Buster Smith, who used to sexually abuse him.
Once he left the soap, Adam was reported to be working as a manual therapist, focusing on the Kasser Method osteopathy technique.
In 2023, we reported that he went by the name Eliteosteo on Instagram and had set up a page to promote his business.
Focusing on training as an osteopath since his soap departure, Adam then returned to acting last year after landing a role in a new action flick.
The action movie starred Hollywood legend Jon Voight and was titled Man with No Past.
BACK IN THE ACTING SADDLE
But that wasn’t to be the end of Adam’s acting career, with his feet firmly back on the floors of film sets.
Adam recently teased that he has now landed a role in the brand new big-budget comedy movie Fackham Hall.
Taking to his Instagram stories over the weekend, Adam shared a snap of him seemingly behind the scenes on the set of the new flick.
TEASING HIS NEW ROLE
Sporting a moustache while laying back in his trailer, the former Hollyoaks star wrote a caption which read: “Wrap day on Fackham.”
According to the description of the movie, Fackham Hall is an upcoming British period comedy film directed by Jim O’Hanlon.
It stars Damian Lewis, Ben Radcliffe, Thomasin McKenzie, Katherine Waterston, and Emma Laird, almost many other famous actors, and it is written by comedian Jimmy Carr, Patrick Carr and The Dawson Brothers.
The movie will also star Harry Potter legend Tom Felton and Until I Kill You and Motherland actress Anna Maxwell Martin.
RELEASE DATE EDGING CLOSER
The premise of the movie states: “A lovable pick-pocket Eric Noone (Radcliffe) who moves into the English manor house of Fackham Hall.
“He has a forbidden romance with Rose Davenport (McKenzie) and is framed for a murder, while Archibald (Felton) becomes Eric’s rival and vies for Rose’s hand in marriage.
“At the same time, rivalries are spilling over in the Davenport family, led by Lord and Lady Davenport (Waterston) as they also weather the epic failure of the wedding of their eldest daughter (Laird) to her caddish cousin.”
The flick is due to hit cinema screens in late 2025.
