"Then Mission Impossible brought me to Australia and that was great because I fell in love"
About this Quote
The intent feels lightly promotional but mostly personal: a reminder that the glamorous machine of film production has human spillover. For performers, jobs can be transient, cities become temporary, and relationships often feel like collateral damage. Badler flips that script. The subtext is: the industry doesn't just take; sometimes it gives you a home, a partner, a new center of gravity. Australia isn't a scenic backdrop here, it's the plot twist.
Context matters, too. Badler is best known for genre TV history ("V") and a career defined by reinvention and relocation. In that light, the quote functions as a neat capsule of how modern acting lives are built: globalized, episodic, contingent on the next gig. The line's power is how it makes that contingency sound almost tender - as if the most "impossible" mission was turning a work assignment into a life.
