Early life

Roden was born in Dallas, Texas, where she attended Hockaday School, an all-girls private school. She came from a medical family and majored in molecular biology and women's studies at UCLA, and spent three and a half years in pre-medical education with a view to becoming a cardiothoracic surgeon before taking up acting full-time.[3]

Career

Roden starred in the cancelled HBO series 12 Miles of Bad Road playing Bronwyn.[4] In 2008, she played Emily Locke in Lost and Sky in the film Bring It On: Fight to the Finish.[5] During 2008–10 she appeared in guest roles on television series including CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Cold Case, Weeds, Community, Grey's Anatomy, and Criminal Minds.[6][7]

Beginning in 2011, Roden starred in the MTV teen supernatural drama Teen Wolf, where she played Lydia Martin, a popular, intelligent girl at Beacon Hills High School who eventually discovers that she possesses the supernatural abilities of a banshee. In 2016, it was announced at San Diego Comic-Con that Teen Wolf would end in 2017 after the completion of its sixth season.[8] The cast of Teen Wolf were reunited virtually for MTV Reunions on Friday, June 5 for the show's anniversary. The virtual reunion, hosted by MTV News' Josh Horowtiz, benefited the First Responders First Charity.

On May 25, 2017, it was reported that Roden would play the lead in the third season of Syfy's horror anthology series Channel Zero, titled Butcher's Block (originally titled Staircases), which is based on the online Creepypasta stories. She portrayed Zoe Woods, a young woman who struggles with mental illness.[9][10] The show premiered on February 7, 2018.[11] On May 31, 2017, Roden was cast as the lead in the Amazon Video horror anthology series Lore, in which she played the role of Bridget Cleary.[12] Lore premiered on October 13, 2017.[13]

On September 12, 2018, Roden was cast in an upcoming horror film No Escape, which was directed, produced and written by Will Wernick; the film was released on September 18, 2020.[14] In March 2019, Roden was cast as Sienna in Jane the Novela, a spin-off to Jane the Virgin. Unfortunately the spin-off was not picked up by the network.[15] On October 18, 2019, Roden was cast in the sequel to the 2019 psychological thriller film Escape Room, which will be released on January 7, 2022.[16]

Personal life

On May 17, 2019, Roden was detained by Brazilian officers at the São Paulo–Congonhas Airport, in São Paulo, Brazil. Immigration officials denied her entry into the country on the grounds that she had an invalid Brazilian visa. Roden claimed to have been treated as a criminal, they would also have denied food and water to her, despite having presented a valid passport and visa.[17][18] After about 24 hours detained, she was allowed to enter the country.[19] She criticized the rigorous way she was treated: "After two years of traveling to Brazil with this passport and this visa with no problems, to meet fans and make friends, I am taken aback by the accusations and the treatment that faced me from the Brazilian Police today. I am shocked that this is the same Brazil I know and love."[20]
