    About

    Emma Elizabeth Myers is an American actress. She is best known for playing Enid Sinclair, the bubbly werewolf roommate in Netflix's smash hit Wednesday. The role, which debuted in 2022, turned her into a fan favorite overnight. She followed that breakout with the lead in the mystery series A Good Girl's Guide to Murder (2024), and appeared in the family comedy Family Switch (2023) alongside Jennifer Garner. In 2025, she voiced a character in the blockbuster A Minecraft Movie, a performance that earned her a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award. That same year, Forbes named her to its 30 Under 30 list for 2026. Across a handful of film and television roles, Myers has quickly proven she can handle both quirky comedy and dramatic depth.

    Early Life & Background

    Myers grew up in Orlando, Florida, the second of four sisters born to Jeremy and Nicole Cassimatis Myers, both lawyers. Her mother has Greek ancestry, and the family's Christian upbringing was central to her childhood. She attended a homeschool cooperative and has said she never had a traditional school experience.

    Her passion for acting sparked after watching The Lord of the Rings film series. She began acting as a child, tagging along with her older sister to auditions. Her first credit was an uncredited extra role as a girl on a school bus in the 2010 film Letters to God at age eight. That same year, she landed her first real role as Paige Slayton on the A&E series The Glades.

    Growing up, Myers was a fan of emo and alternative bands including Twenty One Pilots, Panic! at the Disco, and Fall Out Boy, as well as YouTube creators Dan and Phil. She also developed a deep interest in K-pop, particularly the South Korean group Seventeen, whose fans are called carats. Her gateway to the Seventeen fandom was a viral Vine meme of their 2016 single Aju Nice. She spent her free time playing adventure games such as Ace Attorney and Professor Layton, and was part of online fandoms for Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings franchises.

    When Myers was 16, her family moved to Atlanta, Georgia, where she began pursuing bigger film and TV gigs. She landed small parts until her breakthrough role came along.

    Career Growth

    Myers began her career as a child actress in 2010 with The Glades. She appeared in guest roles on The Baker and the Beauty (2020), Dead of Night (2020), and the TV film A Taste of Christmas (2020). In 2021, she appeared in Girl in the Basement alongside Judd Nelson and Joely Fisher.

    Her breakthrough came in 2022 when she was cast as Enid Sinclair in Netflix's Wednesday, directed and executive produced by Tim Burton. She originally auditioned to play Wednesday Addams but instead won the role of the bubbly werewolf roommate. The series became one of Netflix's most-watched shows, turning Myers into a global fan favorite overnight. She has reprised the role for season 2 and also portrayed Wednesday Addams in a body-swap plot in season 2, episode 6.

    In 2023, she co-starred in the Netflix comedy Family Switch alongside Jennifer Garner, Ed Helms, and Brady Noon, and played Angie Blackburn in the film Southern Gospel. She landed her first lead role in 2024 as Pippa Fitz-Amobi in the BBC mystery thriller series A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, playing a determined teen investigating a cold case. In 2025, she voiced a character in the live-action blockbuster A Minecraft Movie, which earned her a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award, and voiced Chita in Star Wars: Visions volume 3 episode The Smuggler. Forbes named her to its 30 Under 30 list for 2026.

    Public Image & Style

    Myers is known for her bright, optimistic screen presence, often bringing a compelling blend of innocence and resilience to her roles. She frequently posts lifestyle content and modeling photos on Instagram, amassing over 11 million followers as of 2026. Media outlets describe her as a rising star with a down-to-earth personality. Her performance as Enid Sinclair in Wednesday is noted for its warmth and comic timing. She does not have a specific fandom name, but her fanbase has grown rapidly since her breakout role.

    Fame & Fandom

    Emma Myers' rise to prominence has been swift and well-documented, anchored by her breakout performance as Enid Sinclair in Netflix's Wednesday. As of August 2026, iFANN's Global Fame Engine has evaluated her career and public profile, but she does not currently hold a placement in the published rankings, whether the Global Top 1,000 or any Top-100 scope list. This status reflects a celebrity whose fame is substantial yet not yet quantified within iFANN's specific ranking thresholds.

    Her fanbase, while large and dedicated, has no formal name. Across social media platforms, particularly Instagram where she commands over 11 million followers, her supporters are simply referred to as fans. This lack of a coined fandom moniker is notable given the scale of her following, which grew exponentially after Wednesday premiered in 2022. Her engagement with fans is primarily through her Instagram account, where she shares project updates and personal reflections, though she has also spoken about setting boundaries around social media to manage her public presence.

    In the broader landscape of fame, Myers' influence is evident in her media coverage, from magazine covers to interviews, and her ability to generate interest across various projects, including voice roles in The Angry Birds Movie 3 and A Minecraft Movie. While she has not yet achieved a ranked placement on iFANN's lists, her trajectory suggests that such recognition may be forthcoming as her career continues to expand.

    Interesting Facts and Legends

    Emma Myers owns two cats despite being allergic to them, a quirk that endears her to fans. A self-proclaimed geek, she is a die-hard fan of Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings franchises. Her dream roles include Max Caulfield from Life Is Strange and Edith Finch from What Remains of Edith Finch. Interestingly, she originally auditioned to play Wednesday Addams before being cast as Enid. Her K-pop fandom runs deep: she has followed Seventeen for over five years, first discovering them through a viral Vine meme of their 2016 single "Aju Nice," and she attended their Be the Sun tour in Atlanta.

    One of the most retold stories about Myers is her account of a "desperate prayer to God" that she says changed her life, a narrative she shared in interviews in 2026. Another iconic moment is her breakthrough role in Wednesday, which she has acknowledged "made me famous," transforming her from a child actress with minor roles to an international star. More recently, she and co-star Walker Scobell discussed in a July 2026 interview how voice acting for The Angry Birds Movie 3 proved "harder than expected," adding to her lore of versatility.
