Actor
At only 21 years old, Megan Stott has solidified herself as a rising star to watch. This fall, Megan starred in the Duplass Brothers Productions independent series, PENELOPE, in which she played the titular role. The series premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival to a group of anxious buyers and follows a fierce and free-spirited 16-year-old girl who creates a life for herself in the wilderness to escape the constraints of modern civilization. PENELOPE launched on Netflix in September of this year, where it landed in the streamer’s coveted Top 10.
Most recently, Megan appeared in Falcon Film’s AFTERMATH opposite Dylan Sprouse and Mason Gooding, which follows a PTSD-stricken war veteran who attempts to escape a mass hostage situation on Boston’s Tobin Memorial Bridge. The film released in the US on November 1st.
In 2020, Megan starred as Izzy Richardson in the hit Hulu series, LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE, based on the best-selling book of the same name by Celeste Ng. Playing the black sheep in the family, Megan has incredibly powerful scenes opposite Reese Witherspoon as her mother and Kerry Washington as the neighbor with whom she confides in and connects. The miniseries garnered Golden Globe, SAG, Emmy, and GLAAD Award nominations during its awards season run. Based on the New York Times’s best-selling novel by Celeste Ng, LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE also starred Joshua Jackson, Jade Pettyjohn, Lexi Underwood and Gavin Lewis and was released in March 2020.
