Matilda Lawler

BIO

Lawler's first acting role was in a stage production of Jack and Annie at Hoboken Children's Theater when she was in the first grade. She made her Broadway debut in The Ferryman (2018).


In 2017, she starred in the play The Net Will Appear, in which she played a nine-year-old who becomes friends with a 70-year-old. The actor who played the latter character, Richard Masur, became Lawler's mentor and best friend. She tapped into their relationship for the emotions needed to portray her character in Station Eleven.

In 2022, she appeared in the main cast of the Disney+ limited series The Santa Clauses.

She also appeared in The Thing About Jellyfish at Berkeley Repertory Theatre in 2025.
