Les Hill

Les Hill (born 1 August 1973) is an Australian actor who has appeared in many Australian television productions including Home and Away, Underbelly, and Rescue: Special Ops.

Early life Hill was born in the Royal Hospital for Women in Randwick, New South Wales on 1 August 1973 and he has a younger sister named Rebecca. While at school, he became "rowdy" and was eventually asked to leave. He had a starring role in the drama series Rescue: Special Ops.

Hill has also appeared in Pacific Drive as Grant Crozier in 1997, Water Rats, Wildside, the Nine Network series Scorched, and the 2010 Steven Spielberg produced miniseries The Pacific. He also starred in Peter Benchley's The Beast alongside fellow Home and Away actor Laura Vasquez, playing one of the divers that was killed by the giant squid.

Hill reprised his role of Jason Moran in the sequel/spin-off series Fat Tony & Co. which was not a part of the Underbelly franchise due to financing reasons. The show focused on the rise and fall of Tony Mokbel, who also featured in the original series, played by Robert Mammone.

In 2014 and 2015, Hill starred in Wonderland as Max Saliba, a new resident with an air of mystery about him.
