Who is Ellen Page?
Ellen Page aka Ellen Philpotts-Page is a Canadian actress born on 21 February 1987. She’s probably best known as Juno in the indie movie of the same name, opposite Michael Cera.
Ellen Page has also acted in several movies, where she played the main role, such as Hard Candy and Smart People. She was also in X-Men: The Last Stand as Katherine “Kitty” Pryde.
Ellen Page will be seen in a few movies this year, such as Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut, Whip It!, opposite Julliette Lewis, Marcia Gay Harden, Kristen Wiig, and Drew Barrymore herself, and Michael Lander’s Peacock (2009), opposite Cillian Murphy, Susan Sarandon, Bill Pullman and Josh Lucas.
This is one of the boldest screenplays I’ve come across in my albeit short career; it’s a character and story I can throw myself into and exactly the type of movie I love to be a part of.
