It's been a while, but it's time we caught up with one of New Zealand's finest actors - Tem Morrison.

In New Zealand we know him best for Once Were Warriors, but lately he's in all the big Hollywood hits, Aquaman, Moana and of course Star Wars where he plays Boba Fett.

But it's in a more local setting where you can see his latest - he's on our screens telling the, mostly, true story of a husband and wife who thwarted a $500 million meth deal.

The show is called Far North on TV3 with the first few episodes having dropped this week - Temuera Morrison joined Mike Hosking.
