[edit] Early life
After completing high school, Prout attended McGill University for one year, where she majored in English literature.[1] The following summer she booked two new acting projects, and so decided to drop out of the university.[1] Prout has a younger sister named Jennifer.[2]
[edit] Career
Prout started acting at the age of 10.[1] She has said that the decision to go into acting was in response to a "horrible teacher in grade 2" who stifled her and made her withdraw; in response Prout's mother asked 'what can I do to make you happy again?'. The answer was acting and starting Tae Kwon Do lessons.[3]
Prout made her feature film debut as Abby Miller in the 2005 movie Elektra, which was a commercial as well as critical failure.[1] She has also had guest appearances on television shows such as Stargate SG-1, Cold Squad, The Dead Zone.[4] In 2010, Prout portrayed the vampire Lucy in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.[5]
In 2010, Prout starred as Miranda in Seven Deadly Sins, a two-part miniseries which premiered on Lifetime on May 23. She is also set to be cast in an unnamed short film filmed in Hawaii.[citation needed] She also starred in My Super Psycho Sweet 16: Part 2 as Alex Bell, Skye Rotter's sister and in Maternal Instinct as Taylin, a pregnant high school senior.
