Daniella Evangelista has been involved in the film and modeling industry since the age of four. Born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and raised in Los Angeles, California, she now divides her time between both cities. Passionate about cooking and health, Daniella enjoys coaching acting, particularly with children, alongside her performing career. Known for her tomboyish nature and love of cars and bikes, she transforms effortlessly when dressed up.
Evangelista is best recognized for her five-year role as series regular Tracey Antonelli on the popular show Edgemont (2000), which starred Kristin Kreuk (Smallville, 2001; Beauty and the Beast, 2012) and Grace Park (Battlestar Galactica, 2004; Hawaii Five-0, 2010). She has appeared as a guest star in numerous TV shows and has been featured in both television and theatrical films.
Following her debut in Disturbing Behavior (1998), Daniella secured roles in several TV movies, including a minor part in Brothers' Destiny (1995), alongside Danny Aiello and Mickey Rooney. Her first American feature film was Warner Bros.' The Amazing Panda Adventure (1995), where she starred opposite Ryan Slater, brother of Christian Slater. She has also worked in various independent films across different genres. At thirteen, Daniella chose to pause her acting career to focus on her education. In the late 1990s, 20th Century Fox invited her to audition for a role in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999), although the part ultimately went to Natalie Portman. More recently, Daniella appeared in feature films such as Cabin by the Lake (2000) and its sequel Ripper (2001), Wishmaster 3: Beyond the Gates of Hell (2001), and The Mangler 2 (2002). After establishing herself as a "scream queen," she shifted direction by landing the role of Tracey Antonelli in the Canadian hit series Edgemont (2000), which is currently filming its fourth season.
