Actor and singer-songwriter Alicia Witt has been acting since the age of 7, when she made her film debut in David Lynch's sci-fi classic Dune. She will next be seen starring opposite Nicholas Cage in the thriller Longlegs, set for a 2024 worldwide theatrical release. She also just appeared on Fox's The Masked Singer as Dandelion, winning her first episode with her rendition of Over The Rainbow. Recent sightings include psychological drama Fuzzy Head (2023); I Care A Lot (2021) on Netflix, starring Rosamund Pike and Dianne Wiest; as a killer in Lifetime Network's true crime drama The Disappearance of Cari Farver (2022) and as Zelda on the final season of Orange Is The New Black.
Alicia is also a familiar face to Christmas audiences for her 10 holiday movies, many of which have featured her original music and continue to air every year.
Witt spent 5 weeks in the Billboard Top 30 AC Radio chart with her single Chasing Shadows, off her 2021 album The Conduit, which she co-produced alongside Jordan Lehning and Bill Reynolds. Her newest release is 2023's Witness, led by the title track, which debuted in April. A classically trained former competitive pianist, Alicia's music has been described as 'sharply personal, boldly melodic pop originals in the Carole King/Billy Joel vein' and 'touching lost-and-found love ballads' (Philadelphia Inquirer).
Witt's many films include Two Weeks' Notice, Last Holiday, The Upside of Anger, Mr. Holland's Opus, Urban Legend, Four Rooms, 88 Minutes, Vanilla Sky, and Fun, for which she was awarded the Special Jury Recognition Award from the Sundance Film Festival, and an Independent Spirit Award nomination.
Alicia received rave reviews for her role as Paula in Season 6 of AMC's critically acclaimed series The Walking Dead. Witt also appeared during Season 4 of ABC's 'Nashville' as country star Autumn Chase and in Season 3 of David Lynch's Twin Peaks on Showtime, reprising her role from the original as Gerstein Hayward. Other TV includes FOX's The Exorcist; Law & Order: Criminal Intent; The Mentalist; Friday Night Lights; The Sopranos; Cybill; Ally McBeal; and Twin Peaks.
Alicia has performed her original piano-driven pop music all over the world, including at the renowned Grand Ole Opry. She has also opened for Ben Folds Five, Rachel Platten, and Jimmy Webb, to name a few. Her 2018 release, 15000 Days, was produced by Grammy-winning producer Jacquire King (James Bay, Norah Jones, Kings of Leon, Dawes). Witt's previous album, Revisionary History, was produced by Ben Folds and was hailed as 'Grey Seal era Elton John, an alt-universe Fiona Apple, and a film noir chanteuse notching her nights in cigarette burns on the fallboard' (Nashville Scene).
Witt's first book, Small Changes, came out in Fall 2021 from Harper Horizon. The book is an inspiring, welcoming and simple yet effective guide to health, happiness and sustainable living. Instead of promoting a rigid diet, Small Changes offers readers a stress-and-judgment-free approach for enacting easy, incremental changes across all areas of life.
On stage, Witt starred in Neil LaBute's Tony nominated play Reasons to Be Pretty at the Geffen Playhouse. She also appeared at London's Royal Court theatre in Terry Johnson's Piano/Forte and made her West End debut with The Shape of Things.

Andrea Londo is a Mexican-American actress. She is known for portraying Maria Salazar in Narcos (2015) Season 3.
Londo is a border child. She was born in San Diego, CA but lived in Tijuana, Mexico until she moved to Los Angeles, CA to pursue an acting career . For eighteen years she crossed the Mexican-American border everyday to go to school - spending half the day at school in San Diego and the second half at home in Tijuana. She's stated in many interviews that she told her parents she was going to USC, even though it wasn't true, to be allowed to move to Los Angeles.
Londo got representation by mailing a headshot and a very persuasive cover letter in the mail.
After a year of living in LA she got accepted to Barnard in NYC, but decided to stay in Los Angeles to continue pursuing an acting career. Londo began her career doing short films for university students. She appeared in her first TV credit in 2015. It was in 2016 that she appeared in her first TV guest star appearances (Faking It, Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders).
In the fall of 2016, Londo planned on attending UCLA. However, the day of her orientation was also the day of her Narcos audition. She missed orientation to audition for the role and got it.
Londo was number 87 on FHM's 2017 list of 100 sexiest women in the world.
In 2017, it was announced that Londo would be playing Carnalita in Kurt Sutter's Sons of Anarchy spin-off Mayans MC. The role was later recast as Andrea was still filming Narcos and her schedules ended up conflicting. Of the experience Londo said: "I had to get recast 3 days before I was scheduled to shoot the pilot. It's been one of the hardest lessons of my acting career thus far, but only motivated me that much more."
In 2018, Londo played Cynthia in Sony's SuperFly (2018), produced by Joel Silver and directed by Director X. On how she got the part Londo said: "Two days after Christmas my manager called me and told me Joel Silver wanted to meet me. I asked for a copy of the current Superfly script to read beforehand and went in thinking Joel would be super tough and hard to impress. I sat down and he said: 'Listen Andrea, I really want you to do this movie.' And I was in Atlanta a week later."
Since then she's starred in numerous independent films (The Free Fall, Dreaming Grand Avenue, Good Egg, Adventure Tom) and TV shows (Snowfall FX, Tommy, The Winchesters) throughout the years. She most recently did the play "Cloud Tectonics" by Jose Rivera opposite Bobby junior Soto and Clayton Cardenas during the historic SAG-AFTRA strike. She played "Celestina del Sol", Bobby Junior Soto played "Anibal de la Luna", and Clayton Cardenas played "Nelson de la Luna".- Adrianne Ho is a creator, model, television personality, fashion designer, entrepreneur and social media star who has amassed over a million followers globally.
