Daniella Evangelista entered the world of acting when she was only four
years old. Of Italian family background, and raised in Vancouver, BC,
Daniella is the elder of two daughters. Her father, a machinist, taught
Daniella to play soccer, and how to hunt and fish. Daniella's maternal
grandmother taught her how to cook and sew, and her mother initiated her
into the business of modeling and acting.

Her early work in television commercials and modeling included national
campaigns for Benetton and worldwide exposure through Japanese calendars and
other promotions. She was also profiled on the front of the popular Italian
teen magazine, 'Bambini'. Her first appearance in a television series was
when she was five years old, in 'Lies From Lotus Land'. She played opposite
Michael J. Fox as the bratty kid next door. Before the age of ten, she had
filmed up to 20 commercials. In addition, she modeled for fashion catalogs
in her spare time and was proficient in dance. She also acted on a regular
basis in school drama productions.
Shortly after her first film (Disturbing Behavior) Daniella landed roles in
numerous TV movies including a small part in Brothers' Destiny starring
Danny Aiello and Mickey Rooney. Her first American feature film was Warner
Bros.' The Amazing Panda Adventure working opposite Ryan Slater, Christian
Slater's brother. Daniella has also worked on several independent films
across the genre.
At thirteen, Daniella opted to take some time off from acting to concentrate
on school work. In the late 90s she was approached by 20th Century Fox to
read for a role in Star Wars, The Phantom Menace, although the part was
eventually given to Natalie Portman.
More recently, Daniella has appeared in the feature films Cabin by the Lake
and its sequel, Ripper, Wishmaster 3: Beyond the Gates of Hell and Mangler
2. With her 'scream queen' title firmly established, Daniella took a change
of direction and landed the role of 'Tracey' in the Canadian television hit
series, "Edgemont", which is now filming its fourth season. She also
provides the voice of 'Kana' in the popular Japanese anime, "Hamtaro"; and
will soon be seen in the Tom Arnold movie After School Special, and in
Elijah Wood's Try Seventeen which premiered at the Toronto Film Festival. |
