Camila Rebeca Morrone (/məˈrn/; born June 16, 1997) is an American actress and model. She made her acting debut in the James Franco film Bukowski (2013) and appeared in the action film Death Wish (2018), as well as the independent films Never Goin' Back (2018) and Mickey and the Bear (2019). Her role as Camila Alvarez-Dunne in the Amazon Prime Video limited series Daisy Jones & the Six (2023) earned her a nomination for a Primetime Emmy Award.

Early life and education

Morrone was born in Los Angeles, California, to Argentine actors Maximo Morrone and Lucila Polak (who goes by the stage name Lucila Solá). They moved to Los Angeles shortly before Morrone's birth, and divorced in 2006. Camila's mother, Lucila, dated actor Al Pacino for ten years; she still considers him her step-father. Morrone graduated from Beverly Hills High School in 2015.

Career

Modeling

Morrone's modeling career began in 2016, when she modeled for Victoria's Secret and appeared on the runway for Moschino. That same year, she was featured on the cover of Vogue Turkey. She has since modeled for Sephora, Brilliant Earth, and Chanel.

Acting

Morrone made her acting debut in James Franco's 2013 film Bukowski. In 2018, she returned to acting in the action film Death Wish, and co-starred in Augustine Frizzell's directorial debut Never Goin' Back. The latter film premiered at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival and was released by A24. After being cast in Daisy Jones & the Six, Morrone indicated that she would focus her career on acting rather than modeling.

On October 18, 2019, Morrone received the Rising Star Award at the San Diego International Film Festival.
