Valorie Curry

An emerging talent on the rise, Valorie Curry continues to display her versatility as an actress with each project she takes on.

She starred in American Pastoral directed by Ewan McGregor, who made his directorial debut, and written by John Romano. It is based on Philip Roth's 1997 Pulitzer Prize winning novel of the same name. The film stars McGregor, Dakota Fanning, Jennifer Connelly, and Rupert Evans. Valorie portrays the chilling and enigmatic 'Rita Cohen' who crosses paths with Seymour Levov (McGregor), a successful businessman and former high school star athlete from New Jersey. Levov's happy and conventional upper middle class life is ruined by the domestic social and political turmoil of the 1960s during the presidency of Lyndon B. Johnson, which in the novel is described as a manifestation of the "indigenous American berserk."

Curry also starred in Lionsgate film Blair Witch, one of the scariest movies in decades, which involves a group of college students on a camping trip who discover they are not alone. She also appeared in the female lead in the Amazon pilot The Tick, a new take on Ben Edlund's iconic cult comic book character.

Curry had an arc on the fourth season of Showtime's critically-acclaimed Showtime series "House of Lies," opposite Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell, where she starred as 'Kelsey,' a confident computer code writer who both Clyde and Doug chase romantically. She also starred for two seasons on the hit FOX television drama "The Following." Created by Kevin Williamson ("Dawson's Creek" and "The Vampire Diaries"), the show followed an FBI agent (Kevin Bacon) trying to catch a serial killer (James Purefoy) and his murderous cult. In moving and chilling performances week-after-week, Curry played 'Emma,' the devoted leader of the serial killer's cult.

Curry made her first on-screen appearance with a recurring guest starring role on the cult hit TV show "Veronica Mars." Her additional television credits include appearances on notable shows such as "Psych" and "CSI: New York."

Shortly after arriving in Los Angles to pursue acting full-time, Curry landed her first feature film role in the tremendously successful franchise, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2, in which she played the role of 'Charlotte'. Additionally, she filmed a starring role opposite Golden Globe® and Emmy Award-winner® Kyra Sedgwick in Batan Silva's "After Darkness." The feature marked the directing debut of Silva, Terrence Malick's longtime assistant director.

Curry has also worked in the exciting new arena of motion-capture, starring in the title role of "Kara," a state-of the-art production demo from Paris-based gaming company Quantic Dream.

Born and raised in Southern California, Curry received her B.A. in Theater Arts from California State University, Fullerton. She is a founding member of Los Angeles' Coeurage Theatre Company and has appeared in such productions as "Double Falsehood" and Lanford Wilson's classic "Balm in Gilead."
