A FORMER Rose of Tralee is to star with Kylie Minogue and Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock, in a Hollywood blockbuster action movie.

Tara Talbot, who won the Rose title in 2011, has landed a role a new action film called ‘San Andreas’ which has a $100m budget and is being filmed in her hometown of Brisbane and on the Australian Gold Coast.

She has been working as a model with the Andrea Roche Agency and has already filmed scenes for the movie which also stars Paul Giamatti of ‘Sideways’ fame.

Tara plays a college student in the disaster movie but has yet to meet The Rock or Kylie. She is also currently filming a TV commercial and is hoping the movie role will lead to further acting and TV work.

She hasn’t forgotten Ireland though, as Tara is set to return to these shores to marry her Irish fiance in Meath next June.
