Isabel May

What strikes me about Isabel May is the sheer distance between her two breakout roles. Going from the bright sitcom rhythms of Alexa & Katie to carrying 1883 as Elsa Dutton, a part demanding grit, vulnerability, and an old-soul narration, is a leap most young actors never attempt, let alone land. The fact that the producers brought her voice back to anchor 1923 tells me they understood she had become the emotional spine of that whole universe. Born in 2000, she has decades ahead of her, and I genuinely believe she is one of the most promising American actresses of her generation. I am watching her next move closely.
