Wolf is currently in development on her next feature film, Archer's Voice, based on the bestselling novel, which she will both write and direct.

Rothe recently wrapped shooting the title role in MGM's musical adaptation of the 1983 romantic comedy Valley Girl, in which she stars as Julie. Directed by Rachel Goldenberg, and also starring Josh Whitehouse, Judy Greer and Mae Whitman, Valley Girl will be released by MGM and Annapurna Pictures in June.

Rothe can currently be seen starring in the Universal thriller Happy Death Day, directed by Christopher Landon and produced by Jason Blum. The story centers on a woman trapped in a vicious cycle of her own death, who must solve the mystery of her murder before her chances run out.

Rothe was seen in a supporting role opposite Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling in Lionsgate's La La Land, which won six Academy Awards and seven Golden Globes.

Directed by Damien Chazelle, the film opened the 2016 Venice Film Festival, and went on to gross $445 million worldwide.

Born and raised in Denver, Colorado, Rothe currently resides in Los Angeles.



LEX ROE (Liam Page) is a young British actor who quickly took Hollywood by storm, immediately booking job after job when he first moved to the States. Roe is currently in production for Freeform's upcoming series "Siren," which will premiere in March. The show, about a town that, according to legend, was once home to mermaids, is based on a story by Eric Wald and Dean White, who serve as executive producers on the project.

A24 recently acquired the rights to Roe's next film, Hot Summer Nights, after its appearance at the Toronto International Film Festival. Roe stars opposite Timothee Chalamet (Call Me By Your Name) and Maika Monroe in the coming-of-age thriller set during a steamy summer on Cape Cod.
