During the filming of Rams,
Darren Jasper was cast as picture-double and stand-in for the character of 'Colin' (played by
Sam Neill) and performed many of the driving scenes. This also involved being partnered with the animal hero of the film, Colin's ram 'Locke'. Interestingly, most of the scenes featuring Colin's ram in the back of the ute were in fact filmed with a fake prop ram, as the real Locke the ram found travelling in the back of the ute for any length of time very stressful.
