But she did have it, as soon as she walked into the room. She was just really spunky and she had a real hard-core attitude about her.

As for myself, I thought joining the cast midway through as I did would be much harder than it turned out to be," she continues. "The other actors had all been together for months. But everyone was really great and accepted me in a friendly way. The only hard thing was that I didn't have as much of a grasp of the ongoing storyline as everyone else. When I got the role of Tess, I went back and watched all of the episodes-it was my own Roswell marathon. But it's not the same. Being a part of the filming gives you more of an insight towards what's going on.

The highlight of this movie was Emilie de Ravin, who shined as Prudence. She reminded me that women are always in charge – even when someone tries to think that they aren’t. She’s managed to make everyone think twice, assert herself where needed, and guide the men in her life to get where they needed to be.

Far more talent is on display in front of the camera than behind it during the frequently gender-mixed throw downs that comprise the bulk of the picture. Emilie de Ravin (Lost) is brimming with psychosis as Heirophant, more than holding her own against Ving Rhames' Judgement.

Emilie projects that never came to be

During 2008 Emilie was attached to a movie adoptation of the Capcom video game ‘Onimusha’ (as Britta?) along with actors Heath Ledger, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Tsuyoshi Ihara and Satomi Ishihara. The movie was to be directed by Christophe Gans. It had already made it beyond pre-production when the death of Heath Ledger postponed the project. The movie never got back on track and has not been made to this day. Fun Fact: Christophe Gans ended up directing the 2014 movie version of the Beauty and the Beast fairytale. Source. Source.

During 2009, Emilie was supposed to be filming the indie movie ‘Beard’s Creek’ (’It’s about three kids in Louisiana in the 1950s, who find a dead body. It’s kind of Stand By Me meets Night of the Hunter.’) along with actor Stuart Townsend, directed by Tom Donahue. However financing felt through and the movie was never made. Source.

During 2010 IMDB started listing the movie adoptaion of Electronic Arts video game ‘Dead Space’ in Emilie’s projects. the item disappeared from Emilie’s project one day and it was never confirmed whenever she really was attached to the movie. No movie has been made so far. Source.

Also during 2010 Emilie was attached to the indie movie ‘Four Saints’, based on the real life story of four WW1 nurses, for the role of Mairi Chisholm along with actors Rhona Mitra, Selma Blair, Kris Holden-Ried, Arnold Vosloo, Lorena Rincon and Kim Poirier:

FOUR SAINTS is the story of four courageous young women who defied the British Army – as well as German shells and bullets – to run their own medical dressing station on the front lines of World War I Flanders. Over nearly four years, the women saved countless soldiers who otherwise might have perished during the long transfer over rutted roads to field hospitals in the rear. FOUR SAINTS is scheduled to enter production in the Spring of 2010 on location in Alberta, Canada The film opens when the British Army finds itself overwhelmed by the massive casualties in the opening months of the War. Major Munro, a physician attached to the Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC), decides to organize a Flying Ambulance Corps of nurse and driver volunteers to rush the wounded to field hospitals. He recruits four women: Elsie Knocker (British), Mairi Chisholm (Scottish), Dorothy Fielding (Canadian) and Helen Gleason (American). Mairi is the designated driver, while the others all have varying degrees of medical training.

Each of the women has her own private reasons to serve in the Corps. Elsie is fleeing a broken relationship. Helen is anxious to be closer to her husband Arthur, a war correspondent operating in Flanders. Dorothy is concerned about her brother Robert, a volunteer in the newly formed 10th Battalion of Canada’s First Infantry Regiment, scheduled to be deployed in Flanders. And Mairi is a daredevil anxious to escape the stultifying restrictions on women in Edwardian society.

Sadly the film got postponed and delayed a couple of time with in the cast changing at least 4 times with Emilie being replaced with Melanie Lynskey. However, the movie ended up never being made. Source.

During 2012 Emilie signed on for the WW1 drama ‘The 34th Battalion‘ as the wife of one of the soldiers along with actors Nick Farnell, Luke Hemsworth, Charles Mesure, Les Hill, Claire van der Boom, Henry Nixon, Andrew Lees and Vince Colosimo. The movie was supposed to be filmed in 2013, during her OUAT summer hiatus. However, filming got delayed which conflicted with Emilie’s schedule for OUAT causing her to exit the movie and her role to be recast. But financing felt through and so far, the movie has not been made. Source.

Which of these projects would you have liked to see finished? Do you think they could have changed Emile’s career in some way if they had been made?

She looks so tiny that you don’t believe she has this inner strength inside her. For a filmmaker, it’s amazing that you can really play with that cliche of being fragile and at the end you reveal her inner strength.
