Movie star Sam Neill: Stop cathedral restoration and build interfaith hub

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Movie star Sam Neill has joined calls to "dismantle the old wreck" of the Christ Church Cathedral and replace it with "a dynamic social hub".

Neill, best know for his roles in hit movies Jurassic Park and Hunt for the Wilderpeople, wrote in an opinion piece for Stuff that a new interfaith hub on the cathedral site would "symbolize a different, current Christchurch" after the March 15 mosque terror attack.
