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). She was the daughter of the lesbian couple at the heart of The Kids Are All Right, and acted for In Treatment show runner Rodrigo Garcia in his period drama Albert Nobbs. She earned strong reviews for her work as Jane Eyre in 2011, and starred as a teen cancer victim in Gus Van Sant's Restless. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
