After accepting supporting roles in several projects produced in Australia (including the 2006 Suburban_Mayhem and the 2007 September), beautiful yet distinguished actress Mia Wasikowska -- a Canberra native -- broke through to international acclaim with her role as self-defeating Olympic-hopeful gymnast Sophie on the HBO series drama In_Treatment (2008). That assignment predated Wasikowska's starring roles for two A-list directors: a turn as the aviator Elinor Smith in Mira_Nair's biopic Amelia (2009), and another as the little girl adrift in a colorful fantasyland in Tim_Burton's Lewis_Carroll adaptation Alice in Wonderland (2010). Meanwhile, she also acted opposite Daniel_Craig, Liev_Schreiber, and others in the WWII-era adventure drama Defiance (2008), helmed by Edward_Zwick (The_Last_Samurai). Nathan Southern, Rovi
