Sure, here’s the rewritten version:
Back in 2010, everything shifted for Australian actor Xavier Samuel when he landed the role of Riley Biers in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Before that big break, Xavier Samuel had been steadily building a career in his home country. He made his first TV appearance back in 2003 and, after spending some time studying theater, began carving out a name for himself with appearances in several notable films. By 2007, Xavier Samuel was already gaining attention for his performance in the period drama September, followed by roles in the heartfelt family story Newcastle and the intense horror film The Loved Ones.
But it was definitely the Twilight series—specifically the third installment—that brought Xavier Samuel into the international spotlight. His portrayal of the vampire Riley Biers earned him a whole new fanbase around the world. And naturally, opportunities started pouring in. Not long after, Xavier Samuel took on a role in Roland Emmerich’s Shakespeare-themed thriller Anonymous, further proving his range as an actor. It’s safe to say that from that point on, Xavier Samuel wasn’t just another rising talent—he was one to watch.
When it comes to Xavier Samuel’s filmography, fans and critics alike often point to Frankenstein (2015) as his standout performance—widely regarded as Xavier Samuel’s highest rated movie. The dramatic retelling of the classic tale really allowed Xavier Samuel to showcase his range, earning strong reviews and solidifying his reputation as a talented actor. On the other end of the spectrum, Spin Out (2016) tends to come up as Xavier Samuel’s lowest rated film. While it had its moments, the comedy didn’t quite resonate with audiences or critics in the same way. Still, even in less acclaimed roles, Xavier Samuel brings a certain depth that makes his performances worth watching. Overall, tracking Xavier Samuel’s career through these highs and lows offers an interesting look at his evolution in the industry.
