THE NEW ORPHAN ANNIE

Quvenzhane Wallis the worlds youngest Oscar nominee who made her debut in Beasts of the Southern Wild for which she was only 5 years old when she Auditioned, has been nominated for
her first Golden Globe for her Starring role in the remake of the musical Annie.

Set in modern-day New York: The Beasts Of The Southern Wild actress, pictured on October 2, has been filming all over the Big Apple for the last few weeks

The new, contemporary version of the fan-favorite stage musical casts Quvenzhane in the title role: a young, happy foster kid who's also tough enough to make her way on the streets of New York in 2014. Her hard-knock life takes a turn for the better when hard-nosed tycoon and New York mayoral candidate Will Stacks (Foxx) takes her in.

'Annie'

"She is so great at what she does you forget she's only been here 11 years," Jamie gushed . "For people to look at the art and award you, not with a pat on the back or a good critique, you get nominated for a Golden Globe. How many celebrities, actors and actresses, have gone through Hollywood and never gotten that opportunity?... It's mind blowing."
