Ella Anderson

At just twelve years old, Ella Anderson was praised by critics for her role as Jeannette Walls in "The Glass Castle" as "the show-stealing Ella Anderson," "first among equals," "emotional and raw" and "simply enchanting ... possessing acting chops well beyond her years. Anderson is a revelation" Ella Anderson is a versatile actress known for her roles in 'The Glass Castle,' 'The Boss,' 'Mother's Day,' 'Unfinished Business,' and the 2016 Kids Choice Award winner for Favorite Kids TV Show, 'Henry Danger.'
