Ever wondered how old Emmy Rossum was when she captivated audiences as Christine Daa in "The Phantom of the Opera"? Her age during filming has become one of the most talked-about aspects of her performance, a testament to her extraordinary talent and the impact she made on the cinematic world.
The 2004 film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's timeless musical marked a significant turning point in Rossum's career. While "The Day After Tomorrow" also premiered that year, it was her role in "The Phantom of the Opera" that truly catapulted her to stardom, earning her a Golden Globe nomination and solidifying her status as a rising star. Fans were mesmerized by her portrayal of Christine Daa, the orphaned soprano who becomes the object of the Phantom's affection.
