Biography
When Emily Thorne was 12, her family moved from Port Perry (no, us neither), to Montreal because she’d been accepted to a prestigious ballet school. Thorne originally wanted to be a dancer but she decided acting was the way forward. Lucky, then, that she got a role in 90s classic spook-fest Are You Afraid of the Dark?
She went on to play a young Jackie Kennedy in a biopic of the legendary first lady, and a supporting role in chilling mystery movie The Ring Two. She went on to get herself a whole ream of TV credentials: Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Brothers & Sisters and Everwood. In 2009, she starred in end-of-the-world movie Carriers and in 2011, bagged the part of manipulative Emily Thorne in ABC drama Revenge.
She is currently dating her Revenge co-star Josh Bowman.
