According to Xavier’s IMDB, Xavier is casted to the lead role in “(Midnight in) Byzantium” along with Miranda Otto. Set for release in 2014, the film is written and directed by Cris Jones.
After a road accident on the highway, a young man finds himself trapped in a strange, remote town, where nothing – and no one – is as it seems.
I’ve found another synopsis:
A young man wakes up in a strange rural town with no memory of who he is or how he got there. With the help of the local townsfolk, he attempts to piece together the mystery of his past. But in Byzantium nothing – and no one – is as it seems.

“Two Mothers” will take place at the 39th Seattle International Film Festival, May 16 – June 9 in Seattle, Washington. The film is under Love, Country of Origin (Australia), Women and Literature categories.
With a grand total of 447 titles, the 39th Seattle International Film Festival is the largest, longest, and most highly attended event of its kind in the United States. This year’s lineup includes 272 features, consisting of 197 narratives, 67 documentaries, and eight archival films, along with 175 short films. There will also be four secret feature films. 85 countries are represented. The list includes 49 World Premieres, 48 North American Premieres, and 17 US Premieres spanning 25 days. The festival runs from May 16 to June 9.
Fusing an all-star cast of some of Australia’s best actors including Sam Worthington, Myles Pollard, Steve Bastoni and Xavier Samuel, with a genuinely gripping story and some of the best surf cinematography seen in a feature film ever, it’s a world away from what you’ve come to expect from Australian cinema in recent years, and couldn’t be better for it.
Catching up with Xavier ahead of the film’s release this week, Hit agrees with the rising star’s assertion that Drift is a genuine triumph of a film, and not just because it’s made here in Australia
“I’m pretty excited about it all, I’m really happy for Morgan (O’Neill) and Ben (Nott), the directors,” Xavier says, fresh from the film’s premiere in Western Australia, where it was filmed.
“It’s a really classy film and it features surf footage unlike anything you’ve seen in a feature film before. Someone was saying the other day that the waves in the film are the biggest and most spectacular ever in a dramatic feature film.”
