Georgia Laura Henley was born to Mike and Helen Henley on July 9, 1995, the youngest of three sisters. When she was young, she joined a local drama group called "Upstagers". It was there that she started her acting career, participating in stage performances such as Babushka: A Christmas Story and The Pied Piper prior to landing her first role in a film. When Pippa Hall, casting director for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe came to Georgie's town in search of children to play the four Pevensies, she knew Georgie was perfect for the role of Lucy after only one audition. Finally, after 18 months of auditioning, Georgie was picked from thousands of girls to play Lucy Pevensie in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, which was her movie debut. She reprised her role in Prince Caspian and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Georgie's promotion of the three Narnia films took her to New York, Orlando, Tokyo, Paris, and lots of other places around the world. Georgie is currently a student at Bradford Grammar School and loves it! She is no longer a part of her drama club "Upstagers", but hopes to continue her acting career on the big screen. In her free time she enjoys listening to her iPod. She says that if she doesn't keep acting in the future, she'd like to teach, or experiment with music or writing. Up next for Georgie's career is a film called Perfect Sisters, where she is starring alongside Abigail Breslin and Mira Sorvino. Based on a true story, Georgie plays Beth, one of two sisters who plot to drown their alcoholic mother. Filming has already wrapped and the film is expected to be released sometime in 2012.

Georgie also is an ambassador for SOS Childrens' Charity, the world's largest orphan charity dedicated to helping orphaned and abandoned children. You can learn more about them at their official site.
