Meet John Travolta’s daughter Ella Bleu Travolta, star of Get Lost, a kooky modern take on Disney’s Alice in Wonderland film
- Acting is a ‘family business’ for Ella – apart from famous parents John Travolta and Kelly Preston, her dad’s five siblings are also in the entertainment industry
- Before her lead role in Get Lost, at age seven the young starlet appeared in Old Dog, as her parents’ on-screen daughter, then in The Poison Rose with her dad
Following in her famous father’s footsteps, Ella Bleu Travolta is playing the lead in Get Lost, a modern retelling of the Disney classic Alice in Wonderland. In the forthcoming drama, “Alica” goes backpacking to Budapest to fulfil her mum’s last wish, at which point the city magically turns into Wonderland.
Though she made her screen debut at just seven years old, this is Ella’s first big role. So what do we know about legendary actor John Travolta’s 21-year-old daughter?
She clearly has acting in her DNA
Ella Travolta was born into a family full of actors. Her father, John, is known for his iconic roles in dozens of films, most notably Saturday Night Fever and Quentin Tarantino’s cult classic Pulp Fiction. Both roles earned him best actor Oscar nominations. Her mother, Kelly Preston, was also an actress and model, with credits to her name in films such as Jerry Maguire and What a Girl Wants.
John in turn gets his acting talent from his grandmother, Helen Cecilia Travolta, who was an actress and singer who appeared with The Sunshine Sisters, a radio vocal group, before becoming a high school drama and English teacher, according to Celebrity Net Worth. As he is the youngest of six brothers and sisters who all followed acting careers, Ella is also the niece of actors and actresses Ann, Margaret, Ellen, Sam and Joey Travolta.
She has loved acting from a young age
