Angourie Rice’s Parents 

Rice was born to a director father, Jeremy Rice, and a writer mother, Kate Rice, in Sydney, Australia. Her parents named her after the place where her grandmother lived, Angourie, New South Wales.

Kate and Jeremy married each other in 2000, a year before their daughter was born. The writer’s mom had written the series Castaway and Trapped. Besides this, she also acted in several series. 

Her other famous works include Ocean Star, Desperate Scribbles, and Home and Away. Kate’s most loved book among the fans is The Mozart Faction.

Jeremy’s best works include Trapped, Ocean Star, and Gorno: An American Tragedy. Further, he won the Australian Centenary Medal on the 2001 Queen’s New Year Honors List. The award was a result of his contribution to the Australian film industry and Australian society‌.

Jeremy is around 60 years old as of 2024. His actual birth date has not yet been disclosed publicly, though. Similarly, Kate is 54 years old, as she was born on June 2, 1969.

Having parents who were active in the entertainment industry, there is nothing surprising as to why Angourie chose to act as a career.

Angourie Rice Siblings

Rice has a younger sister named Kalliope Rice. The younger Rice sister was born in 2004. Though not as famous as her older sister, Kalliope had been a part of Australian short films and commercials. Moreover, she is also a gymnast.

Since Angourie had been a part of the Marvel Universe’s favorite superhero film franchise, Spiderman, fans have speculated an appearance from the youngest Rice as well.

Additionally, to this day, the Rice siblings have never worked on any project together, whether it is a commercial, a short film, or a movie.

Angourie Rice Career

While it has been easy for many outside the film industry to assume that Angourie landed her first few film gigs because of her influential parents, this has never been the case for her.

Rice started her career young as a commercial television credit and short film actor. After her performance in Transmission, she succeeded in winning the Best Actress award at the St Kilda Short Film Festival.

In the early 2010s, her acting career bloomed with movie projects like These Final Hours, Walking with Dinosaurs, Nowhere Boys: The Book of Shadow, The Nice Guys, Jasper Jones, The Beguiled, etc., until she finally landed the role of Peter Parker’s student Betty Brant in Spiderman: Homecoming.

After her appearance in the Marvel movie, she acted in Every Day, Ladies in Black, Spider Man: Far From Home, Daisy Quokka: World’s Scariest Animal, Spider-Man: No Way Home, Senior Year, Honor Society, and Mean Girls.

Furthermore, she has also been in television series like The Doctor Blake Mysteries, Worst Year of My Life Again, Mako: Island of Secrets, Black Mirror, Mare of Easttown, and The Last Thing He Told Me.

She also played the role of Betty Brant in 2021’s The Daily Bugle. She had a major role in the web show. 

Mean Girls is one of the most hyped movies of all time. And the talented young Australian actress has been in as much hype as her fans are looking forward to seeing her in the role that Lindsay Lohan had wonderfully played in the 2004 movie.

The bars have been set high for the young actress, and the fans are confident about seeing the new Cady give her best to the role. The release of photos and clips of Rice’s performance look nothing but promising.
