Ward makes Aussie flick
AUSSIE supermodel Gemma Ward will make her local movie debut on January 12 when Sydney director Elissa Downs calls action on the Holsworthy set of The Black Balloon.
Ward will play the friend of the movie's central character, who struggles with having an autistic brother.
Toni Collette will play the boy's mother.
The Perth-born beauty has fitted pre-production rehearsals between working the Christmas and New Year party scene.
The 20-year-old already has her first Hollywood flick under her designer belt, after wrapping a role in The Strangers, opposite Liv Tyler and Scott Speedman in South Carolina last month.
