Rachel McAdams appreciation thread - Blu-ray Forum

Canada · 08-10-2015, 05:46 AM

Rachel McAdams was born on November 17, 1978, in London, Ontario, Canada, to Sandra Kay (Gale), a nurse, and Lance Frederick McAdams, a truck driver and furniture mover. She is of English, Welsh, Irish, and Scottish descent. Rachel became involved with acting as a teenager and by the age of 13 was performing in Shakespearean productions in summer theater camp; she went on to graduate with honors with a BFA degree in Theater from York University. After her debut in an episode of Disney's The Famous Jett Jackson (1998), she co-starred in the Canadian TV series Slings and Arrows (2003), a comedy-drama about the trials and travails of a Shakespearean theater group, and won a Gemini award for her performance in 2003. Rachel McAdams was nominated for an Oscar in the best supporting actress for her role a Sacha Pfeiffer in The Academy Award winning Spotlight.

She was in Mean Girls as Regina George, but she shot to stardom as Allie in the Notebook.

I really liked her on True Detective. She's a very good actress. And gorgeous of course.

From tonight's Independent Spirit Awards on the Red Carpet. I dig the outfit. It's retro.

She went to the same college/university I did, and during the same years (okay, even though we started at the same time, she graduated way earlier than I did. I procrastinated and needed another few years to finish). Never met her though. I always stick up for my fellow alumni.

She seems very cool. I'll bet she would have been fun to hang out with.
