She stars in The Wives He Forgot, opposite Molly Ringwald, Lies and Deception with Madchen Amick and Second Chances with Melissa George, all airing now on LIFETIME. Her Hallmark Hall Of Fame Presents/ CBS Emmy nominated movie of the week When Love Is Not Enough: The Lois Wilson Story (opposite Winona Ryder) is among her favorites.

Ellen affinity for the unusual has also led her to starring roles in:
The Listener, The Dead Zone, Earth: Final Conflict, Blood Ties, Dead Before Dawn, Mutant X, A Wrinkle In Time, and Highlander: The Raven where she is the only female to have a broad-to-broad broadsword fight in that show’s history.
