Rebel Wilson was born on March 2, 1980, in New South Wales, Australia. She grew up in Sydney and attended Tara Anglican School for Girls. In 1997, she completed her Higher School Certificate, earning second place in the state in the subject of Food Technology.
Wilson described herself as a shy child who found comfort and expression through humor, often joking around with her three siblings. Her talent for comedy was recognized by those around her, who supported her eventual pursuit of a career in entertainment. Academically strong, she initially considered a career in mathematics.
Rebel Wilson’s career gained momentum after she received the Australian Theatre for Young People (ATYP) International scholarship in 2003, which allowed her to study in New York with renowned acting coach John Howard. Before her breakthrough role, she appeared in several Australian productions, including feature films such as Fat Pizza and a minor role in Ghost Rider.
Her international breakthrough came in 2011 with a supporting role in the critically acclaimed comedy film Bridesmaids. That performance introduced her to a wider audience and led to further opportunities in Hollywood.
