Career

[edit | edit source]

Julia Butters began her career doing commercials. Her first speaking role was the role of Gabby in Criminal Minds.[5] In 2016, Butters portrayed the recurring role of Ella in the Amazon Prime Video series Transparent.[6] Later that year, she began starring in the ABC sitcom American Housewife as Anna-Kat Otto.[7] While Quentin Tarantino was writing the script of his ninth film Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, he spotted Butters on television, and later cast her in the role of precocious child actress Trudi Fraser.[8] After she received critical acclaim for this role, Butters decided to pursue similar opportunities, leading her to leave American Housewife after four seasons.[9] In December 2020, Butters was cast in Netflix's The Gray Man.[10]

In June 2021, it was announced that Butters was cast in The Fabelmans, Steven Spielberg's semi-autobiographical coming-of-age film as Reggie Fabelman, a character based on Spielberg's sister Anne.[11] In August 2022, Butters was cast as Lily in the film Queen of Bones.[12] In 2024, she was cast in Freakier Friday (2025), the sequel to the 2003 film Freaky Friday.[13] She played Harper Coleman, the daughter of Anna Coleman (Lindsay Lohan) and granddaughter of Tess Coleman (Jamie Lee Curtis).[14]
