Hollywood star Robert Patrick has shown off his softer side during a recent trip to Tasmania, taking a break from his usual villainous roles.
The 65-year-old actor, best known for playing the T-1000 in ‘Terminator 2: Judgment Day’, visited Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary and shared the experience with his 370,000 Instagram followers.
In a post that included him holding a wombat, Patrick described the encounter as “AMAZING!!!” and a “beautiful experience”.
Bonorong also shared the encounter on their social media, saying Patrick was “excited to meet some Tasmanian wildlife, particularly the Tasmanian devils”.

“It was wonderful to host him at the sanctuary,” they said.
Patrick was part of a star-studded line-up at the Supanova pop culture convention in Sydney earlier this month and Perth over the weekend.
