Canadian-Born Stars: Vancouver-Born Star and Anna Paquin

canadian-born stars: Last year he also starred in the Toronto-shot Family Channel sitcom Raising Expectation alongside Molly Ringwald, according to The Chronicle Herald. Other Canadian-born stars who've also found themselves returning to shoot TV here in recent years include Catherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy of Schitt's Creek and Anna Paquin of Bellevue. While the Vancouver-born star once had to work south of the border to gain fame on series including Beverly Hills, 90210, he's now able to live at least half of the year back on home soil shooting the dramedy Private Eyes, which debuts its second season Thursday on Global. I think what happened in the TV industry a few years ago was that the TV industry left California and it moved other places, and I think that Toronto and Vancouver were big winners in that migration, Atlanta was a big winner in that migration, New York was a big winner in that migration, said Priestley. Well, for the most part. But the industry has left California and people like me who work predominantly in TV, I go where the interesting work is and ... it brought me here.
