Zoë Belkin Facts
- Her first introduction to acting had been through her grandmother who, at the time, used to do makeup on Second City Television for the famous stars. She would bring Zoë to her film sets when she was as little as four, and Zoë used to know since then that she wanted to be an actress. Due to time constraints, she had to wait until she turned 11 years old, to start her acting classes. When she was 12 years old, Belkin got an agent and had begun to audition for roles, landing her first breakthrough one on the television show The Latest Buzz, at the age of 13.
- Zoë was in the show The Latest Buzz during her first couple of years at the Forest Hill Collegiate Institute. She would have to miss classes for up to 5 weeks at a time and she used to work with a tutor between takes.
- Zoë has credited her high school drama teacher for assisting her to juggle her passion for acting and her studies.
- She has admitted that while shooting for the possession-based family horror drama Isabelle (2018), she never tried to scare or prank her co-star Amanda Crew while on set, but instead, they would laugh a lot. Zoë has recalled that there were two houses directly across from each other, where everything got filmed, and she playing the part of Isabelle Pelway, had to look at Amanda through the window. Doing the same shot every day, of herself staring at her co-star for so long, would end up amusing them when they would burst into laughter.
- She has relished horror movies such as The Others (2001) and The Exorcist (1973).
- Zoë has been an ardent painter in oil and acrylics, having taken painting classes at OCAD. She has even set up a studio where she can work on her paintings. She has also enjoyed writing poetry and short stories and has often worked on movie scripts. Zoë has liked to rehearse her lines for auditions in the local coffee shops or the Trinity Bellwoods Park.
