Childhood and youth
Ansel Elgort was born March 14, 1994 in the largest US city - New York. The boy was not the only child in the family. He has an older sister and brother. Ansel's parents are people of creative professions. The boy’s father is a fairly successful glossy photographer, and his mother works as an opera director.
Since childhood, Encel has been trying in every possible way to make a versatile creative person. When the boy was 9 years old, his parents sent him to a ballet school, but he did not like it much. You could even say that he hated dancing. Then the young man was sent for acting education, first to the acting school, and then to the art school named after the famous politician (in the past - the mayor of New York) Fiorello La Guardia. At this school, he made his stage debut in one of the performances. Gradually, the young man was imbued with a love of acting and firmly decided that he would be an actor. Confidence in this was reinforced by viewing a number of musicals, such as 42nd Street and Oklahoma!
Movie work
For the first time on large screens, Elgort appeared in the movie "Carrie", which was released in 2013. The actor got a cameo role, so then he was not particularly remembered by the audience. But his colleagues noticed him.
And a year later, he receives one of the central roles in the rating cinema "Divergent". Work in this film brings him much greater popularity. But Ensel becomes truly famous thanks to the main role in the film "Blame the Stars."
The filmography of the film actor has a little more than 10 paintings. However, for his five-year career in cinema, this is far from a weak indicator. Moreover, Elgort will soon appear in the title role on the big screens of one of the films (not yet named), directed by Stephen Spielberg.
Hobbies
The young man began to get involved in music earlier than acting. Even during his student days, he came up with the pseudonym Ansølo, under which he released remixes of famous compositions. He laid out his work on the well-known service SoundCloud.
In the musical arsenal of Ancel, there are 4 official remixes, 9 singles and 2 videos for their own compositions. In addition, filming in the cinema does not prevent Elgort from writing music. His debut mini-album entitled "SuperNova" is getting ready for release.
