Last time we talked about Tony in Skins. Today we’re going to meet Tony’s younger sister played by Kaya Scodelario Though she had a British upbringing, she is actually a Brazil girl and she kept learning Portuguese for a long time until she can speak it rather fluently.
上次,我們談到《皮囊》中的主角托尼,這次就說說托尼的妹妹的扮演者卡雅•斯考達里奧。雖然是在英國長大,她祖籍卻在巴西,并且練就了一口流利的葡萄牙語。
Her parents were divorced and Kaya was brought up by her mother. As she was bullied in early childhood and dealt with low self esteem, her passion for drama became an outlet for her. She decided to pursue acting at 14. It was too old for most child stars. But it’s never late for her.
很小的時候,父母就離婚了,斯考達里奧由媽媽撫養長大。因為小時候常挨打,是個自卑的小女孩,表演這條道路算是讓她看到了希望之光。直到14歲,她才定下表演道路。對于童星來說,這個年紀確實不小了,但,她可是斯考達里奧哦。
Then she went to the screen test for Skins. Upon her arrival there she felt she was too young and became discouraged, but a producer stopped her and asked her to read for the part. It’s really hard to imagine a girl with no prior acting experience to get this chance, but she succeeded.
接著,她便去了《皮囊》試鏡,卻突然覺得自己太過年少而想要放棄。在一位制片人的鼓勵下,她最終完成了這場試鏡。誰都沒有想到的是,沒有任何表演經歷的她,一舉拿下了這個角色。
She cast in the first series of Skins in 2007 as Effy and was renowned for having very limited lines. But her performance won her popularity and gradually she became the central character in the 2009 series after the cast had been replaced with a new generation of characters.
2007年,她出演《皮囊》第一季。她所扮演的角色說的臺詞少得可憐,但是她的表演卻征服了觀眾,2009年在演員大換血時,她成功留下,并成為主要角色。
At the same time, she also sought additional career opportunities. She joined the elite agency Models 1 and soon became the cover model for SUPERSUPER Magazine and also appeared in sci-fi thriller Moon. In addition, she appeared in the 2010 blockbuster, the Clash of the Titans
同時,她也沒有放棄其他機會。她和Models 1 簽約,并迅速成為倫敦SuperSuper雜志的封面明星。她也同樣出現在科幻恐怖小說《Moon》里面,也更是在商業大片《諸神之戰》中得到了亮相的機會。
In April 2010, Kaya confirmed her casting as Cathy in a new film adaptation of Wuthering Heights .The film is slated to premiere at the Venice Film Festival in September 2011. As Skins is a rather controversial drama, it would keep us thinking whether the rebellious teenage girl can successfully portray the classical figure. It will be a contest between the new and the classic. Go and see.
2011年4月,她確定出演新版《呼嘯山莊》擔任主角凱茜,該片也將在2011年威尼斯電影節上首映。飽受爭議的《皮囊》里的叛逆女孩是否能重塑這個經典形象?這算得上新生代演員對經典的一次挑戰吧,那就讓我們來瞧瞧吧!
