Mia Wasikowska, born in Canberra, Australia, trained to be a dancer as a young girl, but gave up a promising career at the age of 15 in order to pursue acting. Her first break came in 2004 when she was cast in two episodes of the Australian soap opera, All Saints. She then appeared in several Australian films, including Suburban Mayhem (2006), which earned her a Young Actor's Award nomination by the Australian Film Institute. The actress, who is of Polish descent, admits that she liked to mimic people as a child and was able to adopt an impressive American accent through watching American television in Australia. Next, Wasikowska will be adopting a British accent when she plays Charlotte Brontë's classic heroine, Jane Eyre (2011), alongside Michael Fassbender. Mia’s acting career began in 2004, when she landed a role on an Australian soap opera. She went on to shoot a few Australian-made movies after that, and even won an award for her acting! Once she moved to the U.S., Mia worked on perfecting her American accent and earned tons of kudos for roles she played on TV and in film.
