Eleanor was born in London in 1992 and moved to East Yorkshire at an early age, where she now lives with her mum, dad and brother, Ross, in the historic market town of Beverley.
From a professional acting family, it was always likely that Eleanor would be drawn to a film career.
Eleanor’s first role was as little Daphne in YTV’s adaptation of Falling which starred Michael Kitchen and Penelope Wilton. Shortly afterwards she was asked to play the young version of Jessica Biel’s character Duchess Sophie Von Teschen in Neil Burger’s film The Illusionist.
The film also starred Edward Norton, Paul Giamatti and Rufus Sewell. She was delighted to attend its European Premiere at the Deauville Film Festival in September 2006.
She has recently finished working on a tv film project for the BBC and HBO, Einstein and Eddington in which she plays a teenager, Agnes Muller, who is victimised for being German in 1930’s Britain. Andy Serkis plays Albert Einstein and David Tennant is Sir Arthur Eddington. The film also stars Jim Broadbent and Rebecca Hall.
Eleanor is an accomplished horse rider, loves skiing and also enjoys swimming. She is currently studying for her GCSE’s.
Eleanor is represented by Nicola van Gelder at Conway Van Gelder Grant Ltd. Tel. 020 7287 0077
