Who Is Anora’s Mikey Madison? All About the Best Actress Oscar Winner
What other movies has Mikey Madison been in?
After appearing in several shorts, Mikey made her film debut in 2015’s Liza, Liza, Skies Are Grey. She went on to land the role of Max, the eldest daughter of Pamela Adlon’s character Sam Fox, on Better Things, which ran from 2016 to 2022. During that time, Mikey also appeared in movies like Nostalgia and Monster and on other TV shows like Imposters.
In 2019, she booked a role in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood as Sadie, one of killer Charles Manson‘s cultists who was famously set on fire at the end of the movie. It was a part that sparked her big break, with Sean thanking Quentin for that casting choice while accepting his Best Director trophy, acknowledging if he hadn’t put Mikey in “Once Upon a Time…,there’d be no Anora.”
However, it was Mikey’s work in 2022’s Scream that led Sean to pitch her Anora without the L.A. native even having to audition.
“He said, ‘If you want to do it, I will write it for you,’” she recalled to the Associated Press in October. “And I said, ‘Yeah, absolutely I want to.’ And from there, I think it was about a year until we were on set.”
