Biography
Erin Mae Kellyman (born 17 October 1998) is a British actress. On television, she gained prominence through the Channel 4 sitcom Raised by Wolves (2015–2016) and the BBC series Les Misérables (2018), Don't Forget the Driver (2019), and Life (2020).
She has since starred in the Disney+ series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (2021) and Willow (2022).
Her films include Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) and The Green Knight (2021).
Kellyman was cast as the marauder Enfys Nest in Solo: A Star Wars Story in 2018. The role of Nest in Solo: A Star Wars Story has been reported as the “anti-hero we deserve” and “the most important new character introduced in the movie.” This role was reported to have given Kellyman “global recognition.”
For the role, Kellyman had to go through three stages of audition. Kellyman only tested with the lead of the film, Alden Ehrenreich, during the third audition, doing both acting and stunt test work.
Kellyman starred as knight-in-training Jade in the 2022 Disney+ series Willow; a sequel series to the 1988 film of the same name. The relationship between Jade and fellow series lead Kit, portrayed by Ruby Cruz, makes the series "the first true franchise on Disney Plus to center a queer story", according to Polygon.
