Home and Away star Steve Peacocke has revealed that he is hoping to pursue a film career in the future.

The actor, who has been appearing as Summer Bay bad boy Brax since the beginning of the year, confirmed that he would like to search for work in the US at some point.

Peacocke told TV Week: "My agent wants me to go over there quick smart, but I just want to enjoy this and get better. But that is definitely my goal, because the Americans make so many movies."

Reflecting on his Home and Away success, he continued: "The good thing about my family is we love cutting people down in a fun way, so there's no chance of me getting a big head.

"I'm not saying I'm the world's best actor or anything, but I'm keen to learn and I just don't think I could do anything else. So however long I stay on the show, I'll have done something good."

Peacocke also admitted that he doubted himself when he first joined the cast of Home and Away.

"For the first five weeks of filming, I didn't feel like I deserved to be there and sort of thought I was a bit of a phoney because I've never been through drama school," he said.

Peacocke's on-screen brother Dan Ewing (Heath) also recently expressed a desire to find film work.
