Hey Horiwooders and Maoris down in New Zealand. Tres exciting news!
Just got a call from actor Cliff Curtis who goes by the nick Happy Hori to all of us who know him.
Cliff is at LAX heading back to San Francisco where he’s filming the new ER medical drama, Trauma. He sounds the same: busy, humble, funny.
Cliffie has been causing a bit of a stir on set, because like a true blue warrior hori, (think a grown up Taylor Lautner action guy) he wanted to do all of his own stunts for the series, which he did.
To read more about Cliff Curtis and how he was trained in traditional Maori martial arts (Mau Rakau) growing up as a youngster, go here.
Oh… and yes, Cliff confirms that he’s all on for a Christmas wedding down in beautiful Rotorua New Zealand this Christmas.
Can’t wait to meet his beautiful bride when the newlyweds return to LA for their honeymoon. Go Mr & Mrs Happy Hori in Hollywood. How romantic!
To all of you fullahs and fullah-esses going to Cliffie’s big day down under in Rotorua, happy Hori Christmas to you all. What an epically romantic Hori Hollywood Christmas down under. The legend of Hinemoa and Tutanekai’s great love in Rotorua springs to mind with Cliff’s desired location of Love.
Will post wedding pics on ze blog. :)
This pic of Cliff from the movie, Blow where he starred with Johnny Depp and Oscar winner Penelope Cruz. Cliff has a habit of making everyone else look better who he acts with. This is his X factor in Hollywood. He’s a great.

Well let me be the first to apologize about my earlier comment, about him already being married. I’ll admit when I am wrong, and I am wrong. Please let me know when you post the wedding photos. I love him as an actor, and am very happy for the happy hori.
