My Take
Ambyr Childers, to me, is one of those actors who quietly steals scenes by playing people you cannot quite trust. After grinding through television, she found real weight in Ray Donovan and Aquarius, but it was Candace in Netflix's You that crystallized her gift for menace laced with vulnerability. She makes obsession look unsettlingly natural, the sort of supporting turn that lingers longer than the lead. The fact that she maintains a polished website and social presence tells me she understands her own image. I rate performers who get handed the dangerous roles because directors trust them to land the discomfort, and she clearly has.
Overview
Ambyr Childers is an American actress known for her portrayal of Susan Atkins in the NBC crime drama Aquarius, Ashley Rucker in the Showtime crime drama Ray Donovan, and Candace Stone in the Netflix thriller series You.
