Shark’s behind Dundee

FORGET those Marvel heroes – the next big screen battle could be Australia’s Great White Shark taking on Crocodile Dundee if Greg Norman has anything to do with it.

After the monster success of Tourism Australia’s big screen teaser during Monday’s Super Bowl, Norman ( below) has thrown his weight behind the #BringBackDundee petition to revive the film franchise.

The golf star – who themed his Christmas party around the Dundee films last year – offered his services to Tourism Australia and any support they needed to “bring Australia to the big screen again”.

Norman yesterday told his 92,000- plus Instagram followers to get behind the movement hot on the heels of the mock movie trailer going viral.

Tourism Australia managing director John O’Sullivan said Norman reached out after the trailer was released.

“When you start to get Australian superstars like Greg Norman getting in touch to offer their services and support the campaign, you know you must have come up with something pretty special,” he said.

Adding to buzz around the movie, comedy heavyweight Judd Apatow has declared his interest in the project.

The director and producer behind The 40 Year Old Virgin tweeted his support of a reboot.

“Dundee came to America. Now he has a kid he didn’t know about. What day do I start,” he tweeted.

Ratings for the telecast confirm the ad seen by 103.4 million viewers, with an additional 2.6 million people watching NBC’s coverage.
