Here’s Emmy Rossum looking good in Beautiful Creatures

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Emmy Rossum can do some fifey supernatural stuff to me any day of the week!

Here’s your first look at Rossum in the “young adult” fantasy flick BEAUTIFUL CREATURES. According to EW, Rossum stars as Ridley, the supernaturally manipulative cousin of the lead character, Lena, who’s sent by Lena’s own mother (Emma Thompson) to make sure the teen doesn’t opt for good.

Opening on FEBRUARY 15, 2013, BEAUTIFUL CREATURES goes like this:

Lena Duchannes is unlike anyone the small Southern town of Gatlin has ever seen, and she’s struggling to conceal her power, and a curse that has haunted her family for generations. But even within the overgrown gardens, murky swamps and crumbling graveyards of the forgotten South, a secret cannot stay hidden forever.


Ethan Wate, who has been counting the months until he can escape from Gatlin, is haunted by dreams of a beautiful girl he has never met. When Lena moves into the town’s oldest and most infamous plantation, Ethan is inexplicably drawn to her and determined to uncover the connection between them.

Alden Ehrenreich, Alice Englert, Kyle Gallner and Jeremy Irons also star in the Richard LaGravenese-directed film.
