Ellen Page hot

 Born Ellen Philpotts-Page on February 21, 1987 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The daughter of a teacher and a graphic designer, Ellen Page took an interest in theater from a young age. She performed in her first local production in the fifth grade and won Canada's prestigious Gemini nomination for her role in the made-for-TV movie Pit Pony in 1997. The busy actress went on to appear in several Canadian television series, including the Pit Pony spin-off, Trailer Park Boysand ReGenesis, as well as the award-winning film Marion Bridge.




Ellen Page's Oscar nomination in January, 2008, was unusual in that, even at the tender age of 20, she was not seen as a dark horse. Already ten years into her career, she was a serial award-winner in her native Canada, had stunned audiences with deeply convincing performances in Hard Candy and Mouth To Mouth and had entered the Hollywood mainstream as a mutant hero in the third installment of the X-Men franchise. Where other youngsters up for an Academy Award had arrived out of the blue due to a single stand-out performance based on a single superior script, for Page to be so honoured was predictable. She was expected to reach great heights and had duly done so.

When she was cast as Kitty Pryde in X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), Page gained international attention. Since filming the big budget blockbuster, she's returned to the genre she loves best—dark films such as the upcoming The Tracy Fragment, which she told Tribute TV she finds "intriguing to delve into."
