Here’s our first look at Bran Nue Dae, the flick that sees Aussie singers Jessica Mauboy and Missy Higgins make their cinematic debuts. They join Aussie film royalty in the form of Ernie Dingo, Deborah Mailman, Magda Szubanski, and the incomparable Geoffrey Rush. The film looks like great fun, a real change of pace from the gritty dramas the Aussie industry is so fond of churning out! Bran Nue Dae makes it premiere at the Melbourne International Film Festival next month.

Jessica Mauboy’s Releases Album and Film!
Jessica Mauboy’s star is on the rise. After the top three success of her debut single “Running Back,” Jess is preparing to release her debut album Been Waiting. She’s also set to star in the new local film Bran Nue Dae!
Jess shows she’s got more than just an amazing voice on Been Waiting. She co-wrote all the tracks and spent 12 months to create a collection of urban pop tracks she could be proud of.
Jessica’s acting career couldn’t be off to a better start either. In Bran Nue Dae she’ll star alongside Geoffrey Rush and Ernie Dingo. The film version of this Indigenous musical has just commenced filming in Broome. A singer and now an actress? It sounds like Jessica could be our next superstar!
Been Waiting hits stores on November 22. Brand Nue Dae will be released in cinemas across the country in 2009.
