Biography

Christina Ricci is an American actress who built a career on offbeat, dark-edged characters, often in independent films, though she has also appeared in box-office hits. Born in Santa Monica, California, she made her film debut at ten in Mermaids (1990) and broke through as Wednesday Addams in The Addams Family (1991) and Addams Family Values (1993). Casper (1995) and Now and Then (1995) made her a teen idol before she moved into adult roles in The Ice Storm (1997), Buffalo '66 (1998), The Opposite of Sex (1998), and Sleepy Hollow (1999), winning a Saturn Award for the latter. Her later films include Monster (2003), Penelope (2006), Speed Racer (2008), Bel Ami (2012), The Matrix Resurrections (2021), and Monstrous (2022). On television, she earned an Emmy nomination for Grey's Anatomy and starred on Pan Am and Yellowjackets, the latter bringing Emmy and Golden Globe nominations. She made her Broadway debut in 2010 in Time Stands Still.
