Carrie Coon is one of Hollywood’s most sought-after talents with a wide variety of roles across film, television, and theatre. She has garnered acclaim throughout her career and continues to cultivate her impressive body of work. Carrie can most recently be seen in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, the sequel to Ghostbusters: Afterlife, in which she reunites with co-star Paul Rudd, Finn Wolfhard and McKenna Grace. Upcoming, she will co-star in Azazel Jacobs’ His Three Daughters, alongside Natasha Lyonne and Elizabeth Olson. The acclaimed film premiered at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival and will soon be released by Netflix. She will also star in the independent film Lake George directed and written by Jeffrey Reiner and opposite Shea Whigham. The film will have its World Premiere at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival.
Currently, Carrie is in production on season three of the Emmy-winning anthology series The White Lotus, alongside Michelle Monaghan, Christian Friedel, Aimee Lou Wood, Jason Isaacs, Parker Posey, and Leslie Bibb.
Last year, Carrie was seen in season two of HBO’s The Gilded Age, alongside Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, and Morgan Spector. The series, created by Julian Fellowes, centers on a period of immense economic change, of fortunes made and lost and the rise of disparity between old money and new. Carrie portrays ‘Bertha Russell,’ who comes from the ordinary middle class and is determined to use her money to position to break into a society that resists change. The series has since been nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award for “Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series” and is set to begin production on season three this Summer.
Born and raised in Copley, Ohio, she received her B.A. from the University of Mount Union and her M.F.A. in Acting from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She currently resides in New York with her husband and creative collaborator, Tracy Letts.
