Cara Jade Myers

In 2023 Cara Jade Myers can be seen starring opposite Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, and Brendan Fraser in "Killers of the Flower Moon" (Apple Original Films). Directed by Martin Scorsese, the film is based on David Grann's best-selling book and set in 1920s Oklahoma, where a string of brutal murders took place amongst the oil-wealthy Osage Nation. Myers will star as Anna Kyle Brown, Mollie Burkhart's (Gladstone) sister whose disappearance sets the stage for the investigation into the crimes being committed. Many of those who dared to look into the killings were themselves murdered, and the case became one of the FBI's first major homicide investigations. Together with the Osage they began to expose one of the most chilling conspiracies in American history. The film debuted at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival in May, then released exclusively in theaters in partnership with Paramount Pictures on October 20, 2023. The film will stream globally on Apple TV+. A member of the Wichita tribe, Myers was born in Phoenix, Arizona. Influenced by the arts from a young age, her grandfather, Bobby Hill, was a well-known Native American artist who painted under the name White Buffalo and her grandmother was an acclaimed beader whose work has been displayed in the Smithsonian. Myers was raised in Prescott Valley where she had an innate love for bringing characters to life, and in her early twenties began taking acting courses driving 4+ hours a day to class, which she now says prepared her for the traffic in LA. In 2011 she made the move to southern California, where she began to hone her craft in writing. She was accepted into the 4th Annual Native American Writers Lab, and that same year was a semi-finalist in the ABC/Disney writers program. In 2020 Myers was amongst 12 writers selected as a part of A3 Artist Agency's The Colony program, creating a television pilot which is now in production. She finished the year as a Fellow of the Native American Feature Film Writers' Lab. Recent credits for Myers include roles on NBC's award-winning series "This Is Us," and "Rutherford Falls." Current writing projects include two scripts that are in development, a documentary that is in production and one feature in preproduction. In addition to her work in film and television, Myers is passionate about helping others, and created CRASH Cares whose main focus is to create care packages for the unhoused in Hollywood. She currently lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Josh, and their pup
