G’day visitors,
It has been awhile since I have updated, and I have my reasons: Mia news has been lacking, and I do have a life outside of this fansite. But anyway, just wanted to inform visitors that Mia has been nominated for Best Female Breakout Star from the 2010 MTV Movie Awards. If you’d like to vote for Mia, please click here: MTV Movie Awards – Best Female Breakout Star!
Cheers, and thanks for visiting!
Hello everyone,
USA Today recently published their interview online with Mia today:
‘Wonderland’ star Wasikowska is a wildflower in acting world
Much like her heroine in Tim Burton’s fantastical Alice in Wonderland, Mia Wasikowska knows her own mind.
In the mega-budget adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s classic tale, which just crushed box-office records with its $116.3 million opening, her now-older Alice refuses to be pushed around. Not by the Victorian upper-class twit who wants to wed her, nor by the oddball inhabitants of Wonderland who insist that she rescue them from the evil Red Queen.Similarly, this 20-year-old Australian newcomer from Canberra is not about to change her mouthful of a last name — which is pronounced VAH-shee-kov-ska and comes courtesy of her Polish-born photographer mother — for the convenience of others.
“Very character-building,” she says.
Nor will the actress, who has been likened to a young Cate Blanchett, ever flinch from doing a foreign accent. Besides her British-lite intonations for Alice, the natural mimic has done Polish (2008′s Defiance opposite Daniel Craig), Southern (last year’s That Evening Sun with Hal Holbrook, which earned her a supporting Spirit Award nomination), as well as other American varieties for Amelia and the recent Sundance hit The Kids Are All Right.
Some more updates coming soon!
