She looks like she could be 12 or 14 in that film, but that can't be right because she's actually 18. In promo interviews with Keira Knightley, she looks 18 but when I watched the film I thought she was an actual child.
shareLet's see, she was born on November 10th, 2000. That would mean that she is 18 right now, going on 19.
The movie came out late last year, so that means (if I recall how Hollywood does stuff), they were filming it back in 2017. So that means she was 17 or 18 years old when they were filming, maybe even and young as 16. They took advantage of the fact that she has a beautiful, young-looking face, and looks younger than she actually is.
Typically, in the original Nutcracker, girls between the ages of 10 and 12 would play Clara/Marie. So it's possible they were trying to pass her off as a tall 12-year-old, like they did with Judy Garland when she played Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz."
