Marine advisors to Hollywood
A NZ father/son team is behind the submarine action scenes on Harrison Ford’s latest film, K-19: The Widowmaker. Lance Julian and father, Harry, run Marine Team Ltd., an American-based company with strong ties to New Zealand. The Julians have lent their maritime expertise to such films as U-571, Titanic and Amistad. K-19 tells the fateful story of Russia’s first ballistic missile submarine in the 1960s.
