Timeline

1989

Mia Wasikowska (born 25 October 1989) is an Australian actress.

Wasikowska was born on 25 October 1989 in Canberra, Australia.

She attended Cook Primary School, Ainslie Primary School and Canberra High School, and Karabar High School in Queanbeyan, which neighbours Canberra.

She has an older sister, Jess, and a younger brother, Kai.

Her mother, Marzena Wasikowska, is a Polish-born photographer, while her father, John Reid, is an Australian photographer and collagist.

1998

In 1998, when she was eight years old, Wasikowska and her family moved to Szczecin, Poland for a year, after her mother received a grant to produce a collection of work based on her own experience of emigrating from Poland to Australia in 1974 at the age of 11.

2004

She made her screen debut on the Australian television drama All Saints in 2004, followed by her feature film debut in Suburban Mayhem (2006).

Wasikowska landed her first acting role in 2004 with a two-episode stint on the Australian soap All Saints.

2006

She had just turned 15 when she was cast in her Australian film debut, Suburban Mayhem (2006), for which she was nominated for a Young Actor's AFI Award.

That year she also appeared in her first short film, Lens Love Story, in which she had no dialogue.

2007

In 2007, Wasikowska appeared in the crocodile horror film Rogue, alongside Radha Mitchell and Sam Worthington.

She observed quietly on the set; fellow actor Stephen Curry noted, "We didn't hear a peep out of her for three weeks, which earned her the nickname of 'Rowdy'".

She beat nearly 200 other actresses for a part in the drama September (2007) when she was cast on the spot by director Peter Carstairs following her audition.

2008

She first became known to a wider audience following her critically acclaimed work on the HBO television series In Treatment (2008).

She starred in Spencer Susser's acclaimed short film I Love Sarah Jane, which premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival.

At the age of seventeen, Wasikowska received her first big break role in the United States when she was cast as Sophie, a suicidal gymnast, in HBO's acclaimed weekly drama In Treatment; she auditioned for the role by videotape.

The part required her to leave school in Canberra and move to Los Angeles for three months, while enrolling in correspondence courses.

She earned critical acclaim for her performance as the troubled teenager treated by psychotherapist Paul Weston (Gabriel Byrne), which included praise for her American accent.

She revealed in an October 2008 interview with Variety that she was something of a mimic as a child, and that the widely available American films and TV shows in Australia made it easier for Australians to learn to speak like Americans.

This show enabled Wasikowska to gain roles in American films.

She played Chaya, the young wife of Asael Bielski (Jamie Bell) in Defiance (2008).

Director Edward Zwick cast her, explaining to the Australian edition of Vogue, "Her inner life is so vivid that it comes across even when she's being still."

In June 2008, for her work on In Treatment, she received an Australians in Film Breakthrough Award.

2009

She was nominated for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Female for the film That Evening Sun (2009).

Her next role was as aviation pioneer Elinor Smith in Mira Nair's 2009 biopic Amelia.

2010

Wasikowska gained worldwide recognition in 2010 after starring as Alice in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland and appearing in the comedy-drama film The Kids Are All Right.

Wasikowska and her siblings took part in the production as subjects; she explained to Johanna Schneller of The Globe and Mail in July 2010, "We never had to smile or perform. We weren't always conscious of being photographed. We'd just do our thing, and she'd take pictures of us."

At the age of nine, Wasikowska began studying ballet with Jackie Hallahan at the Canberra Dance Development Centre, with hopes of going professional.

She began dancing en pointe at thirteen, and was training 35 hours a week in addition to attending school full-time.

Her daily routine consisted of leaving school in the early afternoon and dancing until nine o'clock at night.

A spur on her heel hampered her dancing.

Her passion for ballet also waned due to the increasing pressure to achieve physical perfection and her growing dissatisfaction with that world in general, and she quit at the age of fourteen.

However, she credits ballet with improving her ability to handle her nerves in auditions.

At the same time, she had been exposed to European and Australian cinema at an early age, and was particularly moved by Krzysztof Kieślowski's Three Colours trilogy and Gillian Armstrong's My Brilliant Career.

Although shy and averse to performing during her school years, she was inspired to try to break into acting after seeing Holly Hunter in The Piano and Gena Rowlands in A Woman Under the Influence.

She felt acting in film was a way to explore human imperfections.

She looked up twelve Australian talent agencies on the Internet and contacted them all, but received only one response.

Despite her lack of acting experience, she arranged a meeting after persistent callbacks.

2011

She starred in Cary Fukunaga's Jane Eyre (2011), Gus Van Sant's Restless (2011), Park Chan-wook's Stoker (2013), Jim Jarmusch's Only Lovers Left Alive (2013), John Curran's Tracks (2013), Richard Ayoade's The Double (2013), David Cronenberg's Maps to the Stars (2014), and Guillermo del Toro's Crimson Peak (2015).

2016

In 2016, she reprised her role as Alice in the film Alice Through the Looking Glass, and has since appeared in a number of independent films, including Damsel (2018), Judy and Punch (2019), and Bergman Island (2021).
