Xavier Molyneux’s career is soaring to new heights.
Just five years ago he was a Sydney paramedic, and now the 26-year-old has landed his first movie role.
The actor, who joined Neighbours last year, stars in the film Take My Hand, which debuted last month.
He has also teased upcoming racy storylines for his soap character, Byron Stone.
‘There’s a bit of a raunchy storyline. I’m excited to see that one going to air’ he told The Daily Telegraph.
‘There was a lot of effort put in behind it. They brought in people who specialise in that type of performance.’
Xavier says that his rise to fame has been ‘very exciting and very daunting’.
‘There’s a lot of impostor syndrome going on. Being an actor was always a pipe dream” he admitted to the publication.
