To begin with, the girl and her two siblings were raised in Melbourne by their parents Shelley and Andrew Browning, and matriculated from Eltham High School. Her passion for acting was born at the age of eight, when a former classmate of her father noticed her in a school play, and strongly advised to her that she consider a career as an actress.

Concerning her professional career, she debut by playing Billy Connolly’s daughter in “The Man Who Sued God” in 2001, after which she earned her first major role in the horror film “Ghost Ship” the following year, in which she used small weights so that her dress would not float over her face in the underwater scene. The same year she won the Australian Film Institute Award as the Best Young Actress for her performance in the series “Halifax f.p: Playing God”. In 2003, she was seen in the film “Ned Kelly”, in which she starred alongside actors Heath Ledger and Orlando Bloom, and then worked with Billy Connolly again in the film “Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events”, in which she portrayed Violet Baudelaire, winning the Australian Film Institute International Award for Best Actress. After graduating, she returned to the screens with a role in film “The Uninvited” (2009), a remake of the 2003 South Korean film “A Tale of Two Sisters”. In 2011, she starred in Zack Snyder’s action film “Sucker Punch”, in which she played a beautiful young girl, who after the death of her parents appeared in a boarding school. Her net worth was now well established.

In 2013, the actress was seen in a number of films, including “Summer in February”, “Magic Magic” and “Plush”, then in 2014, Browning played Cassia in the film “Pompeii” in which she was accompanied by Kit Harington, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and Kiefer Sutherland.

Most recently Emily landed the main role in the film directed by Alex Ross Perry – “Golden Exits” – in 2017, and since early in the year has been starring in the television series “American Gods”. To conclude, all the above mentioned engagements have increased the net worth of Emily Browning.

Quote
1 I’m a massive daydreamer. I’m constantly lost within my own fantasies and my own thoughts personally, and I think maybe that is sort of represented in what we do for a living, the fact that we make believe everything and we escape into these other characters for a living.
2 I’m not going to do a pop album anytime soon. I’m not going to dye my hair blonde and wear pink mini-skirts.
3 I went to this weird little hippie primary school and we did a lot of plays. The first one was “Alice in Wonderland” and I played Alice. It was all in Italian – it was such a bizarre school.
4 In my everyday life I’m a little bit nervous and not particularly brave. I feel like if I can be completely brave in my work then I’m doing something right.
5 [on what you bring as an artist] You can’t judge it and you can’t analyze what you do, because what you bring is original and beautiful and special.
6 The whole point of our job is to be able to realistically portray a human being and if you don’t experience life, if all you experience is acting and being on set, how on Earth are you going to be able to connect to real people and portray these characters? I realized if I want to do this, I have to have a life.
7 [on a scene that was cut in Sucker Punch (2011)] I had a very tame and mild love scene with Jon Hamm. It was like heavy breathing and making out. It was hardly a sex scene . . . I think that it’s great for this young girl to actually take control of her own sexuality. Well, the MPAA doesn’t like that. They don’t think a girl should ever be in control of her own sexuality because they’re from the Stone Age. I don’t know what the fuck is going on and I will openly criticize it, happily. So essentially, they got [director Zack Snyder] to edit the scene and make it look less like she’s into it. And Zack said he edited it down to the point where it looked like he was taking advantage of her. That’s the only way he could get a PG-13 (rating) and he said, “I don’t want to send that message”. So they cut the scene!
8 My family are very supportive and always have been. They weren’t the kind of parents that pushed me into it. I know a lot of parents of kid actors I’ve worked with have pressured them into acting, but my parents are different. I’m really lucky to have them because they let me make my own decisions.
9 After Hollywood, you know if people are interested in you or in the fact that you’ve been in a movie. You know who your real friends are.
10 I was lucky – the first eight productions I auditioned for, I got cast.
