During this visit, he began to gather stories and anecdotes from the servicemen and women which would eventually form the basis of the script for his movie, Hyena Road.
He returned to Afghanistan to record real-life footage for use in the film, with the remainder of the movie shot in Jordan and at CFB Shilo in Manitoba. Hyena Road has received huge critical acclaim and also high praise from former servicemen and women who have commented on the realism portrayed in the film.
Gross has stated that his intention was always to show people what modern warfare is really like, as he feels most Canadians are not aware of the realities of the conflict in Afghanistan.
He is closely linked with the charity Wounded Warriors Canada, raising money for Canadian veterans and their families. As well as his acting, writing, producing and directing, Gross is a skilled guitar player having learnt to play classical guitar at a young age and has written and performed many of his own songs. He has also performed this song at various events over the years, including the Gemini Awards ceremony and the Canada Day celebrations in Ottawa in He also sings another song which he co-wrote, 32 Down on the Robert McKenzie , in the two-part episode Mountie on the Bounty.
Gross has released two music albums, both collaborations with David Keeley, Two Houses in and Love and Carnage in Gross has continued to work in live theatre throughout his career whenever he can. In he spent a season at the Stratford Festival playing Hamlet. The production transferred to Broadway, but the run was unfortunately cut short due to slow ticket sales. Gross likes to travel and regularly spends time in his apartment in New York. However, he is fiercely proud of being Canadian and, despite several opportunities to make a permanent move to the USA, has always remained dedicated to making Canadian movies.
Whilst remaining politically neutral, Gross also campaigns to raise awareness of causes close to his heart. In particular, Gross strongly believes in the need for greater state funding and recognition for the arts scene in Canada and he addressed the Parliament of Canada in when a proposal was put forward to change tax arrangements which would effectively cut funding for the arts. Paul Gross is back on the small screen, which is reason enough to celebrate.
The show—a follow-up to a s series that was once deemed so scandalous it was pulled by some PBS affiliates —follows a queer community in San Francisco led by a mysterious and magnetic landlady think Melrose Place with way more good vibes and gay people. You first played this role more than 25 years ago. What was it like coming back? Was there any hesitation about revisiting the past? There was no hesitation. Alan Poul, who is one of the executive producers, scheduled a call. Not so much in terms of content, but the spirit of the project was so fantastic.
It was like putting on old shoes. After the pilot episode your character remains a bit of a mystery. What can you tell us about Brian? An aspect of him just feels like me. I had a lot of friends in the queer community growing up. I was of an age when they were experiencing the AIDS epidemic, so I have a lot of intense memories of that period. I kind of understand that part of him. Of course his interests have changed quite a bit since the original series.
In clips from the version you were in a lot of tight pants and topless scenes. Now Brian is running a plant store. Well, right. His focus now is on being a good parent and trying to care for people. All of that I feel fairly familiar with too. Was playing the Lothario ever a natural fit for you?
