The Daily Mail has a story on Canberra’s Mia Wasikowska getting pipped by Leonardo DiCaprio for the title of highest grossing actor in 2010.

Yep, she beat out Robert Downey Jr, and tied with Jonny Depp.

She’s well on her way, best of luck to her.

Cook P.S back in the day and Canberra High, yes I went to school with her but I wouldn’t claim to know any “exclusive” bits of goss about her or anything.

Canberra High School for most highschool year. According the following sources:

http://the-riotact.com/canberra-girl-set-to-star-in-the-next-tim-burton-movie/8566
and myself who went to school with her.

Just to clarify – this isn’t about her own earnings, but about the earnings of the film she appeared in! I did a double-take before I realised that!

The term “shooting up” in the title of this thread…? Is that a deliberate reference to the fact her Alice character looked like a druggo?

And here it is in SMH.

I know she attended Campbell Highschool

Great news. Anyone know which school/s Mia attended in Canberra?

And the story’s in the Australian as well- I figure it’ll filter through to the Fairfax rags as well.

My partner went to school with her, nothing but nice things to say about the girl

What we need now is someone to post claiming he (or she) dated Mia Wasikowska when she was at High School…
