Dónde hemos visto antes a Austin Butler, el protagonista de la película de moteros 'Bikeriders'
Where have we seen Austin Butler before, the protagonist of the biker movie 'Bikeriders'?
The American actor has premiered several highly acclaimed productions this year, although there is an iconic role in his career.
From his beginnings as a juvenile star in series like iCarly or Hannah Montana, Austin Butler has been earning his fame little by little and has finally found his time to shine, establishing himself as a star thanks to his versatility and acting talent. This week he has just premiered Bikeriders: The Law of the Asphalt, a movie directed by Jeff Nichols (Loving).
It is a film set in the 60s that tells the rise of a motorcycle club in the Midwest, the Vandals. The club goes, over the course of a decade, from being a meeting place for local outsiders to becoming a more sinister gang that threatens the unique way of life of the original group.
However, before the acclaimed film that he has released this week, there was a movie that served as a catapult for Butler to achieve the popularity he has today. And this same year he has released some of the most talked about and highly rated releases of the year.
