Ella Bleu Travolta is a well-known American actress who is the daughter of Hollywood legends John Travolta and Kelly Preston. In addition to her own acting endeavors, her celebrity parents and tragic past have also contributed to her recent rise to prominence. Her father also starred in the Disney film ‘Old Dogs’, in which she played the role of Emily. Ella Travolta, who is poised to make a greater impression in Hollywood, also stars in the film ‘The Poison Rose’. Despite having only appeared in two films, she is no novice to media attention. This is due to her red carpet appearances with her family and frequent appearances on television programs such as “Entertainment Tonight” and “Ellen: The Ellen DeGeneres Show.” However, what should have been a joyful childhood with enormously successful parents was marred by tragedy at a young age, following the accidental death of her sixteen-year-old older brother Jett. After years of avoiding the media, Ella Bleu has matured into a stunning and self-assured woman who is beginning her own journey in Hollywood.
Career & Renown
Without regard for their privacy or safety, paparazzi frequently pursue celebrity children in Hollywood, keen to take photographs of them. However, Ella Bleu Travolta grew up relatively securely because her celebrity parents were adept at dealing with the paparazzi. In 2001, she made her cinematic debut in the short documentary ‘Not Under My Roof’, which also starred her mother Kelly Preston. She lived a normal existence for the next few years, attending school and occasionally appearing on “Entertainment Tonight.”
2009 would have such a profound effect on her life that it would utterly transform it. On a professional basis, she was starring in her first movie ‘Old Dogs’. The cast of the Disney film included John Travolta, Kelly Preston, and Robin Williams. Travolta and Williams portray two business associates whose lives are turned upside down when they become the unwitting guardians of twins.
The film was released on November 25, 2009, and despite its box office failure, Ella received praise for her comedic performance. On November 21, 2009, she appeared in an episode of ‘Made In Hollywood’. Nonetheless, no one in the Travolta family, including Ella, was in a good mood at that time. On January 2, 2009, Ella’s older sibling Jett, who had Kawasaki disease, tragically died after having a seizure and hitting his head. The remainder of the year was a mental torment for the entire family, and Ella was largely shielded from the media in order to protect her and give her time to recover.
In later interviews with John Travolta and Kelly Preston, it was evident that the incident had a significant impact on young Ella, despite her refusal to discuss it publicly. Ella Bleu Travolta remained largely absent from the media and even social media over the subsequent years. In the interim, John had begun to practice Scientology, which he subsequently credited for healing the entire family. The controversial religion appears to have worked wonderfully for the family, as both John and Kelly achieved success after the tragedy.
Ella is also scheduled to make her big acting comeback in the thriller ‘The Poison Rose’ (2019). The film stars John Travolta, Morgan Freeman, Brendan Fraser, and Famke Janssen, among others. In the film, Ella plays the leading character of Rebecca Hunt, and her co-stars describe her as a natural in front of the camera. At the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, she appeared on the red carpet for the first time since her brother’s tragic demise, alongside her entire family, in support of her father’s film “Gotti.” With her career just beginning, the young actress is a talent to observe.
