22 year old, Australian, Alice in Wonderland actress Mia Wasikowska is set to appear on the big screen in the Depression Era Crime Drama The Wettest County in the World when it is released next year. Mia has revealed the technique that she uses to get herself in to character before shooting begins, which mainly focuses on the clothing of the era the movie is set in.
Wasikowska explained, “It’s Prohibition Era America. It’s about three brothers and I play the girlfriend of Shia LaBeouf’s character. The wardrobe is always the last piece of the puzzle. When you step into the clothing, that’s the final step to figuring out that character. I also like looking at a lot of pictures from the era, or if there is any footage. I always collect a bunch of images for every film that I do, that reminds me of an essence of the character, or the time that they live in, or what they’re experiencing.”
Mia Wasikowska stars alongside Shia LaBeouf, Tom Hardy and Jessica Chastain in the John Hillcoat directed movie The Wettest County in the World, which was filmed earlier this year and is set to be released on April 20, 2012. Tom Hardy recently discussed an off camera bust up that he and co star Shia LaBeouf were rumoured to have had.
