In The Glass Castle, Snook plays Lori Walls, the eldest daughter of the Walls family. “Working between Australia and overseas at the moment is one of the great gifts of my life, and I hope I can continue it,” Snook tells us, having recently completed a role for her Predestination directors, the Spierig Brothers’ Melbourne-shot Winchester, opposite Helen Mirren. The film also features Woody Harrelson as Rex, an alcoholic father and Naomi Watts as Rose Mary, a painter and artist. The film follows the remarkable story based on Jeannette Wall’s memoir of the same name, delving deep into the lives of her unconventional family in a time of extreme poverty. Recently opening in the US to glowing reviews is The Glass Castle, from the makers of Short Term 12, and starring that film’s recently Oscar-minted leading lady Brie Larson. On television, she was the best thing about Spirited, The Secret River and The Beautiful Lie, and started making inroads overseas with a high-profile stage role opposite Ralph Fiennes in The Master Builder, and a supporting role in Steve Jobs. The NIDA grad was raised in Adelaide and made her biggest professional impact with the androgynous role in Predestination, along with smaller parts in The Dressmaker, Oddball and Holding the Man.
Labelling Sarah Snook as a breakout star would be an understatement.
