NEXT WAVE OF FAMER: AnnaSophia Robb "Johnny Depp Is A Really Cool Guy, Great With Kids"
AnnaSophia Robb, 14, is most known for her role in the family film Because of Winn-Dixie and costarring with Johnny Depp in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. She also costarred with Josh Hucherson in 2007's Bridge to Terabithia.
AnnaSophia began acting lessons at 8. A year later, her mom, an interior designer, packed her into the car and took off for Los Angeles. She revealed, 'I did one audition a day, sometimes two, for TV, for movies, for commercials.'
On meeting Johnny Depp, 'Johnny is a really cool guy and good with kids,” the young actress told me. In the morning, he always said 'hi.'' In-depth info and video clips under the cut!
AnnaSophia was born in Denver, Colorado. She has a dog, Bella, and enjoys singing, snowboarding, rafting, dancing, and reading, especially fantasy and historical fiction. She competed in dance and gymnastics for four and a half years, but quit when she began acting.
AnnaSophia was once home-schooled and now attends a private school in Colorado. She is a Christian and has said that she is really close with her family. 'A current passion is dance. I’ve just gotten started, but ballet is really fun. Last fall I also got into track, running cross-country.'
Would Anna consider being an architect like her father? 'I’d hate the responsibility if a building isn’t done right and falls down. I'm thinking about college. I want to learn a little bit about business, about the world, about writing. I hope it won’t be too much work.'
She doesn't care for skiing but likes other winter sports, 'I prefer snowboarding, you can go really fast.' Below is AnnaSophia's music video for 'Keep Your Mind Wide Open' from Bridge to Terabithia. Also, an interview with Josh Hucherson and a clip at the Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire premiere!
