Her red hair may come from a bottle, but Hannah Endicott-Douglas is a natural for her new role as Anne Shirley.
The 12-year-old blond Toronto actress has been chosen to play one of Canada's most beloved cultural icons in a prequel to the original Anne of Green Gables miniseries starring Megan Follows. It's a series with which she is intimately familiar, having played scenes with her older sister, Vivien, since she was a toddler.
"I'm a very big Anne fan. I have been for a very long time," Hannah said from her home on the eve of her first day of shooting.
It was Vivien who usually played Anne, while Hannah portrayed the supporting characters.
Now it's Hannah's turn to be Anne, and 15-year-old Vivien will play Violetta, a character who starts out as Anne's rival.
Hannah, who has read L.M. Montgomery's classic novel, says what she likes about the fictional orphan is "her way to look on the bright side, her imagination and her fiery temper."
The Grade 8 student, who dyed her hair for the role, was crowned the new Anne after a three-month search by Sullivan Entertainment.
"She was the one who had the shine," said writer/producer/director Kevin Sullivan, the man behind the original series.
Anne of Green Gables: A New Beginning is based on an original screenplay by Sullivan. The TV movie focuses on Anne's life before she came to Green Gables.
