What happened to Abigail Breslin? The actress who came to the Oscars with her role in ‘Little Miss Sunshine’

For most performers, dreaming of being nominated for a Oscar award The most normal thing in the world. However, very few succeed, especially at a young age. Yes it is the case Abigail Breslin (26), who only had to wait ten years of his life to get, in 2006, an Oscar nomination for his secondary but iconic role in the comedy ‘Little Miss Sunshine‘.

Although she did not win the award, the New York actress, who also earned a nomination for the same role in the BAFTAwent down in history as one of the youngest people to reach the awards of the hollywood academy. But what has become of Breslin, a true youth star in the 2000s?

A very young actress: she has been working since she was three years old

The truth is that Breslin has been working as an actress all her life. At just three years old, she made her television debut, in an ad for Toys ‘R’ Us. At the age of five, she participated in her first film, ‘signs‘ (2002), and two years later he made his debut with Disney in the film ‘Chestnut, the hero of Central Park‘ (2004), although it was not the only project he worked on that year (‘surprise princess 2‘, ‘Keane‘ and ‘mom to forcea’ are the other films that he released then).

What surely no one expected was that he would achieve worldwide success in 2006, with ‘Little Miss Sunshine’, a film in which he played Olive Hoover and with which he obtained great recognition. It is not surprising that from that moment the projects rained down on him. In fact, has worked uninterruptedly until 2019.

Among the titles listed in his career are ‘no reservations‘(2007),’Definitely, Maybe’ (2008) or ‘nim’s island‘ (2008), a film that earned her a nomination at the Teen Choice Awards in the Best Actress category. She also highlights her work, in 2009, in ‘My Sister’s Keeper’ (‘Anne’s Choice’), for which she won Best Performance at the Young Artist Awards. And many will remember her for her role in ‘zombie land‘ (2009).

Until 2019, Breslin continued working on different film projects, in addition to making his debut at the Teatro de broadway. He also occasionally participated in several episodes of television series, albeit occasionally.

In recent years, his role stands out in the horror comedy ‘scream queens‘, on Fox. A series with which he got his first regular role on television and in which he worked with Emma Roberts, skyler samuels, Billy loud, Jamie Lee Curtis either Ariana Grande. However, the fiction was canceled in 2017 as it did not obtain the expected audience results.
