Welcome to Claire van der Boom Online, a fansite devoted to Claire van der Boom, a beautiful and talented Australian actress. You may know Claire from her work in the Australian series Rush, or from projects such as The Pacific and her recent role in Hawaii Five-0. Here you will find the latest news, images and media featuring Claire. Please have a look around and enjoy your stay!
If you live in Sydney and would like to see “Record” the short film starring Claire and directed by Aussie actor David Lyons, then you’re in luck! The film will be showing at this year’s Sydney Film Festival! The dates and venue Record will be showing at are:
• Saturday, 15th June – 4pm at Event Cinemas: George Street 4

The Commonwealth Bank have a short little behind the scenes look at the commercial that Claire filmed for them a couple of years ago. It’s nice to see some shots of Claire from the set of the ad! I’ve added the screencaps to the gallery as well.
I’ve opened up a brand new video archive for Claire van der Boom Online, which replaces the old zip file download one that we had (which was very tiny anyway). With this one you can watch streaming videos on the site itself, no waiting for downloads! It’s like our own little Youtube page which will aim to showcase Claire’s career. You can watch, comment, rate and share videos on social media sites!
I’ve added a few clips from some of Claire’s past roles plus a few trailers, features, etc. I will be adding lots more in the future, but for now there’s a small selection of videos that you can enjoy right away.
The videos are in flash format, so if you are wanting to watch from an iphone or an ipad, you will need to download a special flash enabled browser. There are a few to choose from in the app store if you don’t have one already.
Hope you all like the new video archive and find it a little easier than the previous one. If you notice any errors, please let me know and I will fix them ASAP.
A new short film has popped up on Claire’s IMDB page, titled “Record”. Record is a film written and directed by Australian actor, David Lyons (from Revolution, Safe Haven and ER) and it’s storyline is described as:
A father in mourning struggles to connect with his blind daughter. Amidst her collection of memories he soon learns that the colours of grief and understanding are more vivid when glimpsed through the eyes of the blind.
A recently widowed fisherman’s blind daughter has refused to eat fish since her mother’s death. Her father discovers voice recordings the girl had of her mother, in which Mom expects to be reincarnated as a fish.
Thus, the girl is afraid she may accidentally eat her mother.
There is a trailer and poster that has been released for the short film “Beneath The Sheets”. In the film, Claire plays the character of Evelyn.
BENEATH THE SHEETS centers around Dave, who has spent years building a life and career in New York, while working with his therapist, Sophia, three times per week. Now, he is finally in a meaningful relationship with Evelyn, whom he finds both challenging and intelligent. However, Evelyn lives in Berlin, and when she is forced to return to Europe, Dave must decide whether everything he’s worked for is worth leaving behind, and he begins to question the nature and boundaries of his relationship with Sophia. This intense character study features a brilliant international cast, including Noah Bean (Damages), Reshma Shetty (Royal Pains), and Claire van der Boom (The Square).
I have added the poster to the gallery as well as screencaps from the following trailer.
