Angourie Rice, the 25-year-old actress known for her roles in The Nice Guys, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and The Last Thing He Told Me, reflects on her journey to stardom and the challenges of navigating her dual life as a child actor.
Angourie Rice has come a long way since her breakout role in the 2016 film The Nice Guys. The Australian actress, who has worked alongside major names like Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe, has built a successful career in both film and television.
Early Life and Career
Rice’s introduction to the world of acting began at a young age, with her parents working in theater. She started pursuing acting around age 10 and landed her first major role in The Nice Guys at 14. The film’s release marked a turning point in her career, with Rice going on to take on leading roles in several notable projects.
One of her notable roles was as Betty Brant in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. She also appeared in the HBO Max series Mare of Easttown as the daughter of Kate Winslet’s titular character.
Current Projects and Ventures
Rice can currently be seen opposite Jennifer Garner and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in Apple TV’s The Last Thing He Told Me, which released its second season on February 20. In addition to her acting career, Rice has also ventured into writing, co-authoring a young-adult novel with her mother, Kate Rice.
Their debut novel, Stuck Up and Stupid, was released last year, and they are now preparing for the launch of their second co-authored novel, My Wonderful Disgrace. Rice explains that she sees storytelling as a cohesive whole, encompassing various forms of media, including movies, books, TV shows, and music.
Personal Life and Reflections
Rice reflects on her experiences growing up as a child actor, often feeling like she was living two different lives. She compares her situation to that of Miley Cyrus‘ iconic character Hannah Montana, who led a secret life as a pop superstar.
Despite the challenges, Rice credits her loved ones back home for helping her stay grounded. She emphasizes the importance of keeping a part of herself private, even in the public eye, and cherishes the mundane aspects of her life that she can share with friends and family.
Rice’s journey serves as a testament to her dedication and passion for her craft. As she continues to navigate the complexities of her dual life, she remains committed to her art and the connections she makes with her audience.
