Madeleine will be playing Lara Emerson, Atomic Annie's country cousin.
How did you get to NYC?
Went to college at NYU for Drama at the Atlantic Theater Studio and the Stonestreet Film Studio.
What did you want to be when you grew up?
An actress! That way I could be everything!
What's your favorite movie? What do you love about it ?
My newest favorite movie is "Mad Max: Fury Road" I also love "Alien" and "Spirited Away"
Anything with action, adventure, and a great female lead - I'm sold.
What's your favorite TV show? What do you love about it?
Have to say "Game of Thrones" because it combines my love of high fantasy with gritty historical realism. Plus amazing, varied, and fully developed characters that always face the consequences of their actions in incredibly surprising ways.
What's your favorite project that you've ever done? Why?
Ha, well I've done a lot of very fun film and stage work... but my favorite is probably still working at the New York Renaissance Faire. Total character creation and improvisation with thousands of people a day, all while living in a make believe village alongside very real craftsmen and sword fighters. It was a great break from city life, and who doesn't love speaking in "thee"s and "thou"s?
What's your dream role? Why?
I'd love to be part of a scifi/fantasy series like Star Trek, Xena, Buffy, the kind of shows I loved growing up. To have a fun character that gets to go on amazing adventures, heck that's what I try to do in real life too!
What drew you to Atomic Annie?
Ha ha, see my "dream role" above! I saw the script for Atomic Annie and knew there was nothing else like it. It's fun, exciting, and has all the elements of my favorite Joss Whedon creations! I especially love Lara as a character because she somewhat represents the audience's perspective. She's this rural girl who finds herself in this crazy world of mad scientists and odd doctors, where she is completely in over her head, but it's just so much fun she can't help but be swept up in the excitement of it! She's the only one who doesn't have a nickname yet, so I'm thrilled to find out what it will be and how (or if) she earns it...
