Neighbours star Erin Mullally has reportedly landed a new role in the children's series Lightning Point.
According to TV Tonight, Mullally¸ who took over the role of Declan from James Sorenson, is currently filming at Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast.
Lightning Point is a 26-part series about two girls from another galaxy who become castaways in a quiet coastal town.
Mullally joined Neighbours in early 2010 when Sorenson quit to join the army. His departure from the soap was announced last October.

The actor's decision to leave his role as Zeke Kinski was announced late last year, with his final scenes due to air in Australia next week.
Speaking to TV Week about what he hopes to do next, the 19-year-old commented: "I'm back to auditioning now, which is kind of strange - I haven't done it for such a long time. I'm also hoping to go overseas later this year and live abroad for a while."
Meanwhile, reflecting on his 5-year Ramsay Street stint, he joked: "When I look at photos from the beginning, I was like a little boy and now I'm driving - and shaving in patches!"
Werkmeister also explained that Zeke's radio-based plotlines were among his favourites from his time at the show.
He said: "I really enjoyed all the stories about the radio station and Lost Boy. The writers were really keen for my input, so I had a fair bit of involvement in the concept."
Zeke's exit storyline will see him leave Erinsborough after accepting a place at the London School of Economics.
ooh nice, so he gets to be with Rachel, how strangely logical for a soap!Quote:

The actress's character Carmella Cammeniti will soon reappear on Ramsay Street for two episodes, sparking the exit of Hall's alter ego Rebecca Robinson.
Carmella makes her comeback alongside partner Oliver Barnes (David Hoflin), who is determined to help mum Rebecca amid her ongoing blackmail problem with husband Paul.
In an interview with TV Week, Blair explained: "Oliver and Carmella - who live overseas with little Chloe - return to help Rebecca in her time of need.
"They all have a history with Paul Robinson, and so they come back to protect Rebecca and watch out for her best interests."
Discussing why she agreed to the brief return, Blair added: "When we found out it was just for two episodes - and knowing it was for Jane Hall - that's what made us go, 'Oh it's for Jane! We can't not come back for Jane!' David and I are very, very close to her, so we couldn't resist."
Blair and Hoflin - currently based in Los Angeles - have also been a couple in real life for the past three years.
Neighbours star Jane Hall has discussed her decision to leave the soap, explaining that it was the right time to "move on" from Ramsay Street.
The actress has already filmed her final scenes as Rebecca Robinson, which air in Australia next week and in the UK in April.
Speaking to TV Week about her three-year Neighbours stint, Hall said: "It was fabulous while it lasted, but it's finished for me now. I think my character has come a long way and has had some pretty crazy stuff happen to her, but it was time to move on."
Rebecca's departure ties in with the brief return of her son Oliver (David Hoflin) and his partner Carmella (Natalie Blair), who arrive to help the bar manager amid her ongoing struggles with husband Paul.
Hall explained: "Rebecca's relationship with Paul had deteriorated to such a point that she felt there was no hope for it. She'd exhausted every possibility with him time and time again.
"You'll see someone who's taking on a new path in her life and who's starting to move in a more positive direction and look for a different way to live."
Hall announced her Neighbours departure last October.
Neighbours star Erin Mullally has praised his screen mother Jane Hall's "emotional" departure storyline.
Hall's alter ego Rebecca Robinson will soon leave Ramsay Street after her son Oliver Barnes (David Hoflin) returns alongside partner Carmella (Natalie Blair), giving the bar manager strength and support in her time of need.
Rebecca has felt like a prisoner in her own marriage in recent months as she has struggled to escape the clutches of her blackmailing husband Paul (Stefan Dennis).
However, Mullally - who plays Rebecca's younger son Declan - told TV Week: "Oliver and Carmella give Rebecca emotional and moral support to cushion her.
"The family forms a protective barrier around her to shuffle her off. I think it's all pretty truthful and real - and it does get quite emotional."
Mullally also confirmed that Declan is the person who sparks Oliver's reappearance on Ramsay Street by phoning him to explain the situation with Paul.
Rebecca's final scenes air in Australia next week and in the UK next month. It is thought that Declan also leaves in the same episode.
Matthew Werkmeister has revealed he is keen to develop his acting career after leaving Neighbours, and has written a film script.
It was announced last October that Matthew - who plays Zeke Kinski - will be leaving the soap after nearly six years, but he has now spoken about his next career move.
"Neighbours was a dream, but it's time for me to move on," he told Inside Soap.
"I'm keen to get back into the auditioning game and I've written a short film."
Matthew, 19, joined Neighbours as a 13-year-old to play Zeke, Susan Kennedy's stepson, and has grown in confidence since his first episode.
"The experience freaked me out at first, but you get more comfortable as time goes on - I think I hit my stride about halfway through," he said.
He revealed that his character's exit is not as exciting as he would have wished.
"It would have been fun to get killed off. I guess they couldn't do that so soon after Ringo Brown and Bridget Parker. I wouldn't have minded Zeke shipping off to Hawaii either - I could do video conference from the beach."
However his exit happens, Matthew admitted it was sad watching fellow teen actors leave the show before him, but said: "Now it's my turn."

I wish him good luck
