Auditioning for the title role of Wednesday and losing it turned out to be the best career move she never planned. The part she got instead, Enid Sinclair, was the show's emotional engine: a rainbow-haired werewolf who made the gothic misanthrope next door seem almost relatable. Her first sign the show had landed was 10 million new Instagram followers in three weeks. She'd been filming her next project the day after Wednesday dropped and almost missed the whole thing.
Two lead roles in two years is a strong argument that Wednesday wasn't a fluke. A Good Girl's Guide to Murder debuted at No. 1 on Netflix's global chart in August 2024, and The New York Times called her performance 'luminous.' The source novel reportedly shot back to the bestseller list. Forbes put her in its 2026 class of 30 Under 30. The pattern is clear enough: she's not the sidekick anymore.
The cheetah dream was real: she spent most of her childhood practicing running on all fours, hoping to grow up into one. A self-described introvert, she's a devoted K-pop fan who has called a SEVENTEEN concert in Newark the best night of her life. The same person who spent seven hours stranded in an Icelandic blizzard, no food, no gear, apparently filed it under 'travel story' and not 'trauma.'
