Who is Aryana Engineer?
Canadian actress Aryana Engineer was born in Port Moody, British Columbia, Canada, on 6 March 2001, under the zodiac sign of Pisces. She has four acting credits, and is probably best known for her portrayal of Becky in the popular 2012 action science fiction horror movie “Resident Evil: Retribution”, written and directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, and which starred Milla Jovovich, Michelle Rodriguez and Sienna Guillory. It follows Alice and the resistance as they’re fighting to stop a testing facility from conducting experiments on humans; the movie won two of its eight award nominations.
Education and early life
Navruze and Anne-Marie Engineer raised their daughter Aryana in Port Moody, alongside her brother; the girl was born partially deaf, and it worsened over time. It’s believed that Navruze’s an entrepreneur, and that he’s today the CEO of his own company, and that Anne-Marie’s a college professor.
In 2007, Aryana’s neighbor Brenda Campbell saw her use sign language to talk to Anne-Marie, and as Brenda was also a talent agent, she contacted the producers of the movie “Orphan”, knowing that they were searching for a girl with blonde hair who could use sign language; the movie script described Aryana’s character Maxine ‘Max’ Coleman as ‘inimaginably cute’, and the director Jaume Collet-Serra agreed that Aryana was perfect for the role when he saw her perform.
The critically acclaimed mystery horror thriller “Orphan” was released in 2009, starred Vera Farmiga, Peter Sarsgaard and Isabelle Fuhrman, and follows a married couple who’ve adopted a nine year old girl, as a way to cope with the loss of their own baby; the movie won one of its seven award nominations. As Aryana was five and six while shooting for the movie, she believed that it was all just a game during the entirety of its making.
She attracted quite a lot of attention with her role in “Orphan”, and was thus invited to appear in a commercial for the Winter Olympics in 2010, while she and her brother represented Canada at the opening ceremony.
Aryana studied at a special high school attended by other deaf children, and she matriculated in 2019; it’s believed that she hasn’t attended college.
Acting credits
Aryana’s appeared in only two other movies – she starred as Belinda in the 2015 short family drama “Dreaming of Peggy Lee”, written and directed by James Everett, and which also starred Will Palmer and Beth Winslet. It follows two children who’ve escaped from their care home so that they could listen to music at a jazz club in ‘40s London, England; the film won five of its nine award nominations.
The following year saw Aryana reprise her role as Becky in the action science fiction horror “Resident Evil: The Final Chapter”, also written and directed by Paul W. S. Anderson; it starred Milla Jovovich, Iain Glen and Ali Larter, and follows Alice who’s preparing for a fight against the Umbrella Corporation at The Hive in Raccoon City. The movie won two of its five award nominations.
Other credits
Aryana was featured in the 2012 documentary movie “Back from the Afterlife: Making ‘Resident Evil: Retribution’”, which starred Paul W. S. Anderson, Dennis Berardi and Jeremy Bolt; it tells the story of how the popular movie “Resident Evil: Retribution” was made.
