Carlton

Adam White, a former player for Carlton with 44 games under his belt, has ventured into a vastly different realm, producing one of the year’s top horror films, earning accolades even from Stephen King. It’s a stark departure from his days on the footy field.

In the chilling scenes of “Late Night with the Devil,” Adam White, once a stalwart of Australian rules football, now dons the persona of the Owl High Priest, a role he embodies with eerie precision.

This unexpected career shift prompts curiosity: how did Adam White traverse from the AFL to becoming an integral figure in the realm of horror cinema?

Rewind to 1995, a fresh-faced White joins Carlton, marking the onset of a journey punctuated by both triumphs and setbacks. Despite memorable moments on the field, including a notorious collision with a field umpire and participation in Carlton’s historic 1999 preliminary final victory, White’s tenure is marred by a string of injuries, culminating in his departure from the club at the age of 26.

Unlike many athletes facing post-sports uncertainty, White had a plan. His passion for film, nurtured during his football days through frequent visits to the cinema and a voracious appetite for movie rentals, laid the groundwork for his transition into filmmaking.

Equipped with a background in animation, White seized opportunities in the industry, eventually crossing paths with the Cairnes brothers and becoming involved in the production of “Late Night with the Devil.” From co-producing to assuming the role of the Owl High Priest, White’s involvement in the film epitomizes versatility.

The dedication pays off as “Late Night with the Devil” garners acclaim, making waves at prestigious festivals and earning praise from horror luminary Stephen King. Its success catapults White into a new realm of achievement, signaling a remarkable evolution from his days on the football field.

Reflecting on his journey, White draws parallels between filmmaking and football, emphasizing the pursuit of perfection in every aspect of the craft. His story stands as a testament to the boundless possibilities of reinvention, showcasing the transformative power of passion and determination.

As Adam White navigates this unexpected trajectory, one thing remains certain: his journey from AFL player to horror film impresario is nothing short of extraordinary, even if it entails donning the guise of a giant owl.
