Mia Threapleton is Kate Winslet's daughter. Now she's Wes Anderson's latest star.
Mia Threapleton is Kate Winslet's daughter. Now she's Wes Anderson's latest star. Show Caption Hide Caption 'The Phoenician Scheme' trailer: Benicio del Toro is a wanted man Benicio del Toro plays an industrialist with plenty of rivals and a plan to build a grand project in Wes Anderson's "The Phoenician Scheme." Mia Threapleton knows she'll be a Halloween costume. It's something she's been told often since signing on for a starring role in 'The Phoenician Scheme' (in theaters nationwide June 6), the quirky new offering from director Wes Anderson. His idiosyncratic characters have become frequent fodder for spooky season, and Threapleton's pipe-puffing, smoky-eyed novitiate Liesl is destined to join their dress-up ranks. Every time someone says that, 'it just feels more and more bizarre,' says Threapleton, 24, the daughter of Kate Winslet and filmmaker Jim Threapleton. The chance to create a new Anderson character 'still feels surreal. Every day, I seem to be waking up and just thinking, 'Oh, my God, how is this happening?' ' 'Phoenician Scheme' follows Liesl as she's plucked from the convent by her estranged father, Zsa-zsa (Benicio del Toro), to help him get his affairs in order after a near-death experience. The comedy is perfectly tailored to Threapleton, who shares her mom's self-deprecating charm and delightful wit. Here's what to know about the rising star: Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox Mia Threapleton initially wanted to be a marine biologist As a young kid obsessed with whales and docuseries 'The Blue Planet,' Threapleton dreamed for many years of becoming a marine biologist. 'I feel far more at home under the water than floating on top of it – sadly, I don't have gills,' Threapleton quips. 'I still love the natural world. And then at some point, I realized that I'm horrifyingly dyslexic and can't do quick math, so I don't think that's quite going to go the way I planned.' How Jodie Foster sparked her love of acting Growing up, Threapleton recalls putting on shows in her garden and playing a lion in an after-school drama club at age 7. She adored Anderson's movies 'Moonrise Kingdom' and 'Fantastic Mr. Fox,' although it was seeing a young Jodie Foster in gangster musical 'Bugsy Malone' that inspired her to become an actress. 'I remember thinking, 'This person is amazing!' I wanted to be her,' Threapleton says. Eventually, at 15, she started signing up to casting sites, sending her information 'out into the ether' for open calls and auditions. Her parents were initially unaware: 'I didn't actually tell them I'd done that,' Threapleton says. 'That wasn't a conscious decision, I just kind of forgot to tell them – as you do!' She made her major film debut in the dystopian drama 'Shadows' At 13, Threapleton made a brief cameo in 2014's 'A Little Chaos' alongside her mom. But it was the 2020 post-apocalyptic thriller 'Shadows,' after she graduated high school, that marked her first professional acting role. 'I was so relieved to not be in school anymore, so when I was done, I threw myself into wanting to audition,' Threapleton says. 'It was the first-ever full film script that I had seen properly and I just inhaled it into my brain.' The audition process lasted for a couple of weeks before she learned she got the part: 'I was carrying laundry downstairs when my phone rang. I just sat on the floor – I couldn't believe I'd done that.' Mia Threapleton also made a movie with famous mom Kate Winslet The up-and-comer has worked steadily ever since, with roles in Apple TV+ series 'The Buccaneers' and Starz's 'Dangerous Liaisons.' She also starred in the British TV film 'I Am Ruth' with her mom and brother Joe Anders (whose dad is Sam Mendes). Winslet won best actress at the British Academy Television Awards (BAFTA) for the mother-daughter drama, which tackles how social media harms mental health. On the set, 'I did learn that my mum and I are extremely different when it comes to the ways that we prepare and the things we find useful,' Threapleton says. 'I mean, we've got different brains; we're different people. It was a really fascinating experience and an incredibly intense experience at the same time, just because of the subject matter.' There's one major misconception about being Kate Winslet's daughter Despite being the daughter of an Oscar-winning A-lister, Threapleton insists that her childhood was normal: filled with 'running around in fields, getting really dirty knees and making pillow forts.' 'It does seem like this misconception that people have,' Threapleton says. 'I really didn't go to film sets as a kid – I could count on one and a half hands the amount of times that I did. My mum really kept it very separate: Home was home and work was work. The analogy that feels most accurate is that it would've felt like a lawyer taking their child into a courtroom.' Now, 'I'm really grateful I didn't have those experiences as a kid because it meant that in the few opportunities that I have had to do work, I've learned an awful lot. And that's all just happened through my own experiences of doing those things.' She hopes Wes Anderson asks her back after 'Phoenician Scheme' One of Threapleton's favorite recent films is 'Anatomy of a Fall,' and she's itching to work with Sandra Hüller next. She has not yet had a conversation about reuniting with Anderson, now that she's part of his troupe. 'I'm just taking every day one day at a time,' Threapleton says. 'I didn't think this was going to happen for me. I had so many different backup plans: Could I be a photographer? A painter? A sound engineer? What could I do that's still creative if this doesn't work? So I'm just letting it all wash around me right now.'

Mia Threapleton Says She Manifested Working With Wes Anderson Aged Just 13
Start as you mean to go on, they say - and Mia Threapleton's start, has set a high. In her biggest role to date, the actor stars alongside the likes of Tom Hanks and Michael Cera as Benicio del Toro's daughter in The Phoenician Scheme – a veritable who's who of global Hollywood talent. There is only one director who can pull this calibre of actor together, and that is Wes Anderson. The film has just shown at Cannes Film Festival, and Threapleton touched down days later in London where ELLE UK caught up with the star. SEE MORE AT ELLE COLLECTIVE 'The Cannes carpet was… terrifying,' Threapleton confessed. 'The stairs are very tall and very red, and I was just thinking, don't fall over. Everything is fine. Pull down your dress at the front. Don't let anyone tread on the back of it. That was the first red carpet that I'd ever done, and being there with everybody really made me feel a hell of a lot calmer because firstly, they'd all done it before, and secondly, it was the same people that felt like a family when I was working with them. I knew that we were all going to have a giggle. And then I got into the cinema, and I felt like the room was vibrating. I couldn't hear anything, because my heart was thumping so loud in my ears. And then I sat down, the film started, and I just thought - here we go.' Threapleton's excitement in joining Anderson's iconic legacy is effervescent. With total gratitude and a slight sense of disbelief, she recalls watching Anderson's work as a teen and aspiring to be like the actors she has just worked with. Needless to say, she has done her homework, quoting lines from The Grand Budapest Hotel and confessing that aged thirteen, when watching Moonrise Kingdom, she wrote in her journal: 'I really wish I can work with Wes Anderson one day.' In Mia's case, manifestation truly works. Anderson's cinematic world far transcends what is only seen on screen, case in point: the social media account Accidentally Wes Anderson. With its instantly recognisable aesthetic, Anderson's films – and the impeccably dressed characters that come with them – have been replicated by legions of cinephiles time and time again. For Threapleton's character Liesl, there are no Adidas tracksuits nor Peter Pan collars. Playing a nun, her costume evolves from conservative and clean to pipe-smoking and red-lipped. 'She is a blank canvas, and then paint gets added. It was very informative to who Liesl is. The eyeshadow goes on and it feels different. It is incredibly indicative of the internal journey that she is going on when we see her. And I really miss those green stockings.' Showing affection towards the bolder aesthetics Liesl adopts, it is then unsurprising that Mia takes sartorial inspiration from style icons Iris Apfel and Isabella Blow. Be it fashion or film, Threapleton's enthusiasm is infectious.
