If I Stay: Mireille Enos & Joshua Leonard Official Movie Interview
Categories:
Mireille Enos BiographyMireille Enos grew up in Houston, Texas with devout Mormon parents. From a very early age Enos had a strong interest in acting and decide to pursue her craft after graduating high school. She studied acting at Brigham Young University before landing a spot with the Classic Stage Company in New York City.
As her reputation for finely honed theatrical performances grew, Enos also began collecting screen credits, including a turn as a yoga instructor in the Ashley Judd-Hugh Jackman romantic comedy "Someone Like You." She guest starred on episodes of everything from "Sex and the City" to "Rescue Me" but continued to moonlight on the stage as well. Critics raved about her performances in productions of classics such as "Mourning Becomes Electra," "The Miracle Worker" and "The Invention Of Love," and she earned a 2005 Best Supporting Actress Tony nomination for her turn as the timid Honey in the Kathleen Turner-led Broadway revival of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" When the play was transferred the following year to London's West End, she earned excellent reviews from European critics as well.
Enos' professional momentum increased accordingly; she booked even more television work, including spots on “CSI: Miami," "Medium" and "Law & Order: Criminal Intent." A lengthier and showier display of her considerable acting chops came when she played twin sisters Jodeen and Kathy Marquart on the polygamy drama "Big Love" on HBO.
2009 proved to be the year of Enos' mainstream breakthrough, however, when she was chosen to head the cast of "The Killing," the moody American adaptation of the immensely popular Danish murder mystery. As lead homicide detective Sarah Linden, Enos received rapturous reviews from critics, who hailed the character as groundbreaking - an often silent, introspective cop and single mother defined by her laser focus and sharp edges. The stylishly downbeat series became a sensation, with Enos and her magnetic performance at its center. Not unexpectedly, Enos earned an Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for the role.
Her work on “The Killing” caught the eye of the casting director on the big-screen adaptation “World War Z.” In the 2013 film Enos played Brad Pitt’s wife while they struggle to survive a worldwide zombie apocalypse.
As an adult, Enos is no longer a practicing member of the Mormon faith but she told the LA Times of her upbringing, “I’m so grateful to have been given this idea of being part of a larger context. I think whatever your endeavors are, it helps to feel you’re not alone in the universe.”
