Emma Myers

Emma Elizabeth Myers is an American actress who rose to prominence for her portrayal of Enid Sinclair in the Netflix television series Wednesday. Following her breakthrough, she expanded her screen portfolio with leading and supporting performances in various television shows and feature films, including A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, Family Switch, and A Minecraft Movie. Through her work in major entertainment projects, she has established herself as a recognizable figure in contemporary film and television.

Born on April 2, 2002, in Orlando, Florida, Myers was raised in a Christian household as the second of four daughters born to two attorneys. She and her sisters received their education through a homeschool cooperative. Her maternal heritage includes Greek roots. During her upbringing, Myers found that participating in community theater and dance helped overcome the challenges of finding community within a homeschooling structure.

Initially aspiring to become a dancer, Myers developed an interest in performance at the age of five after joining her older sister at auditions. At age twelve, she temporarily stepped away from acting to focus on competitive dance. Her family relocated to Atlanta, Georgia, when she was sixteen, enabling her to resume her acting pursuits with greater dedication. During her youth, she engaged with media fandoms, including music groups like Twenty One Pilots and Seventeen, as well as narrative franchises such as The Lord of the Rings, which heavily motivated her passion for acting.

Myers began her screen career in 2010 with minor appearances in the feature film Letters to God, the television series The Glades, and the short film Crooked. After her four-year hiatus, she returned to screen acting in 2020 with roles in projects such as The Baker and the Beauty, Dead of Night, Deathless, and A Taste of Christmas. In 2021, she featured in the Lifetime television movie Girl in the Basement.

Her major career breakthrough occurred in 2022 when she was cast as Enid Sinclair in Wednesday, a role she secured after initially auditioning for the title character. The widespread success of the series elevated her profile significantly. She followed this achievement with a role in the 2023 film Southern Gospel and co-starred as CC Walker in the comedy feature Family Switch later that year.

In 2024, Myers played the protagonist, Pippa Fitz-Amobi, in the mystery series A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, earning critical praise for her work. The following year, she starred as Natalie in A Minecraft Movie, a role that won her the Favorite Butt-Kicker accolade at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards alongside a nomination for Favorite Movie Actress. Her later credits include voice work for Star Wars: Visions in 2025, recognition on the 2026 Forbes 30 Under 30 list, and a voice role as June in The Angry Birds Movie 3.

Outside of acting, Myers has engaged in brand partnerships with companies including Coach, Calvin Klein, Samsung, and Claire's. She lives in Atlanta, Georgia, and remains committed to her Christian faith. She has also spoken openly about her experiences with insomnia, social anxiety, and panic attacks.
