Mia Wasikowska Wiki Biography
Mia Wasikowska, born Emily Wasikowska, is a famous Australian actress who has been able to build net worth of $3 million. She is a well-known personality all around the world mostly thanks to her appearance as Alice in the American fantasy film “Alice in Wonderland” directed by Tim Butron, and for the American HBO drama entitled “In Treatments”, where she appeared in season 2. Mia also increased her net worth even more because of filming in “The Kids Are All Right” comedy/drama directed by Lisa Cholodenko, which managed to win four academy awards.
Emily Wasikowska was born on October 14, 1989, in Canberra, Australia. Her mother is Polish, and a photographer like her father John Reid, who is also known as an Australian collagist. Mia is the middle child in the family and was raised together with her older sister and younger brother. Since nine years of age, Mia dreamt about performing to a big audience, and took ballet lessons as a small girl. During school years Wasikowska was a shy teenager, but still played some small roles in school. She decided to associate her future life with an acting career only after she watched “The Piano” with Holly Hunter and “A Woman Under Influence” with Gena Rowlands. About that time she started to search for a suitable role for herself and contacted many different talent agencies in Australia through the internet, but received only one response. That’s how she was given a role in the 2004 movie entitled “All Saints”, which was the beginning of building up Mia Wasikowska’s net worth.
Since then Mia has become extremely popular among audiences around the world, especially after “Alice in Wonderland” appeared on screens. Despite being such a young actress, Mia has already managed to show herself as a talented actress and establish a considerable amount of net worth. For audiences, Mia is also known for some other notable roles in the movies: Mia played Pamela Choat from “That Evening Sun”, “Sarah Jane” from “I Love Sarah Jane”, Lilya from “Suburbian Mayhem”, “Sherry” from “Rogue”, Chaya Dziencielsky from “Defiance” and Elinor Smith from “Amelia”. Furthermore, in 2010, when the video game “Alice in Wonderland” appeared, Mia was asked to voice Alice Kingsleigh, and of course this performance also increased Mia Wasikowska’s net worth.
During her acting career Mia has been nominated for numerous awards and even won five of them in 2009 and 2010. She received AFI International Best Actress Award after the film “That Evening Sun” appeared on screens and she was also announced as Actress of the Year by Hollywood Breaktrough Award for her amazing appearance in “Alice in Wonderland”. Of course, such a great beginning to her career raised the net worth of Mia Wasikowska, but we can clearly consider that it’s just a beginning of a great acting breaktrough in her career which is going to be even more amazing.

Mia Wasikowska Quotes
- I have this funny thing that, if war breaks out, or if anything catastrophic goes down, I want to know that I can walk home.
- I think I have a reputation for being quite shy, but I don’t think I’m too shy. I guess I lived in a bit of a fantasy space in my mind.
- I need the consistency of one place and people and friends. But I’ll probably end up being the pregnant 30-year-old in the back of the class at university one day.
- My mom remembers a period when I locked myself in my room and did research and made phone calls and wrote letters to try to get an agent.
- Fourteen is that wonderful time in your life when you feel such extremes of emotions, you can feel the most incredible elation. It’s when everything is still possible. It was this little adventure for me.
- I didn’t have a typical teenagehood so I have a lot of repressed rebellious teen left over. Every now and then I’ll act out in some unusual way.
- It’s so unsatisfying to play a nice, sweet girl. It’s so dreadfully boring and almost painful! I like to play characters who have their own fire.
- My earliest childhood memory is walking down the corridor with my sister Jess in the middle of the night to see my brother Kai being born in the living room.
- It’s never been about the blockbusters and making a huge ton of money. It’s always been about wanting to do projects about the things that I think are important to be out there, because there’s a lot of stuff that probably doesn’t need to be.
- I really love doing things that are different and challenge me in different ways. And I think to remain interested and excited by acting it’s really great to have such diverse opportunities, and I feel really lucky that I’ve been able to do that so far.
- What I like about film is it explores imperfections. That was something that really attracted me.
- [on Jane Eyre (2011)] The challenge is that the book, start to finish, is Jane Eyre’s internal monologue – everything we know is because of what we’re hearing directly from her. So my concern was ‘How do we keep that intensity?’ I was excited about seeing how we could portray all that’s going on inside, all that she’s observing and feeling, thinking.
- When I decided to pursue acting at 15, I heard that you had to have an agent to do film and television, so I did a Google search for acting agencies in Sydney. I hounded one to take me on and started auditioning. I did some films in Australia, and then I started working in America on In Treatment (2008) when I was 17.
- I just wanted to try a different type of performance – ballet is more an image of perfection, and film can show a grittier side. Sometimes it’s the more realistic topic of real life that really intrigues me.
