More About Elliot Page

Up next, Elliot stars in CLOSE TO YOU, a drama feature directed by BAFTA winner Dominic Savage, which Elliot also co-wrote and produced. CLOSE TO YOU had its world premiere at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival. Elliot stars as Sam, who has a chance encounter with an old friend on his way home to a dreaded family reunion that forces him to confront long-buried memories. Elliot currently stars as Viktor Hargreeves in one of Netflix’s most successful global series, THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY, which follows a disbanded group of superheroes who reunite after their adoptive father dies. Elliot recently wrapped production for its highly anticipated fourth and final season. Off-screen, Elliot’s critically acclaimed debut book, a memoir entitled Pageboy, was published around the world in June 2023. The book became an instant bestseller, debuting at #1 atop The New York Times’ Bestseller List and receiving widespread positive reviews. Full of behind-the-scenes details and intimate interrogations on sex, love, trauma, and Hollywood, Pageboy is the story of a life pushed to the brink. But at its core, this beautifully written, winding journey of what it means to untangle ourselves from the expectations of others is an ode to stepping into who we truly are with defiance, strength, and joy. With his production company, Page Boy Productions, Elliot develops and produces entertaining, original, and socially responsible stories. The company seeks creators and content from underrepresented communities and uplifts collaborators who have been denied equitable access to mainstream Hollywood. Elliot and Page Boy Productions have first-look television deal with UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, to develop both scripted and unscripted television projects. Elliot’s much anticipated directorial debut, THERE’S SOMETHING IN THE WATER, was released globally on Netflix in 2020. The documentary, which Elliot directed with frequent collaborator Ian Daniel, is based on the novel of the same name by Ingrid Walton and explores the scourge of environmental racism through the lens of Indigenous and African Nova Scotian women fighting to protect their communities, their land and their futures. The film meaningfully advances our urgent cultural conversations about both racism and the environment. Elliot created and produced the ground-breaking, two-time Emmy Award®-nominated documentary series GAYCATION, executive produced by Spike Jonze and Shane Smith for VICELAND. The series follows Elliot and Ian Daniel as they explore LGBTQ+ culture and the often-harsh realities facing queer communities across the world. On the big screen, Elliot developed, produced, and starred in the independent 2017 drama MY DAYS OF MERCY opposite Kate Mara. In 2015, he produced and starred in Peter Sollett’s FREEHELD opposite Julianne Moore, Michael Shannon and Steve Carrell. Elliot also developed, produced and starred in Patricia Rozema’s post-apocalyptic drama INTO THE FOREST (from the novel of the same name by Jean Hegland) opposite Evan Rachel Wood. In 2010, he starred alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Christopher Nolan’s Academy Award®-winning sci-fi thriller INCEPTION. Elliot received an Academy Award® nomination for best actress in Jason Reitman's beloved comedy JUNO, as well as nominations from BAFTA, the Golden Globes and SAG. For his breakout performance, Elliot won an Independent Spirit Award, MTV Movie Award and Teen Choice Award. Additional acting credits include: Sian Heder’s TALLULAH; Lynn Shelton’s TOUCHY FEELY; Drew Barrymore’s WHIP IT; Zal Batmanglij’s THE EAST; David Lander’s PEACOCK; Bruce McDonald's THE TRACEY FRAGMENTS; Tommy O’Haver’s AN AMERICAN CRIME; Kari Skogland’s THE STONE ANGEL; Alison Murray's MOUTH TO MOUTH; Daniel MacIvor’s WILBY WONDERFUL; Noam Murro’s SMART PEOPLE and David Slade’s HARD CANDY.
