Gorgeous (she looks like a young Angelina Jolie) 15-year-old Emily Browning is one lucky Aussie teen. She was chosen to play the orphaned Violet in the new Jim Carrey fanciful adventure Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events. This isn't the first time on film for the young actress. She was a creepy young ghost in Ghost Ship and ran from an even creepier ghost in the horror thriller Darkness Falls. Before that, Emily was in loads of TV in her native Australia.

At a mere 16, Australian actress Emily Browning is beginning to make quite a name for herself. Remembered for her her ghostly performance in "Ghost Ship", Browning has appeared in the Australian films "Ned Kelly" and "The Man who Sued God", as well as the horror flick Darkness Falls". Hailing from Melbourne, Browning says she has no intention to call LA home, but it's early days yet. Browning arrived in a Beverly Hills hotel to promote "Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events", in which she shines as inventor Violet Baudelaire who, along with her brother and baby sister, are constantly being threatened by the villainous Count Olaf [Jim Carrey]. Turning up with a small posse to equal that of major stars, Browning talked to Paul Fischer.

No less an authority than Jim Carrey has declared that Melbourne schoolgirl Emily Browning "is going to break a million hearts''. In fact the obsessive fan mail has already begun to accumulate for the young actor with the alabaster skin and vivid green eyes. Browning admits she no longer visits her personal website in the wake of a deluded fan posting wild claims about his role as her secret boyfriend. "It is quite weird when I've never met this person in my life," she says. "That people would make something like that up is kind of creepy."
