Taissa Farmiga

Despite her young age, Taissa Farmiga already has a long resume as an actress. She was born on August 17, 1994, in New Jersey, United States. She is the daughter of Ukrainian parents and the youngest of seven siblings.

Taissa never had in mind to dedicate herself to the cinema. It was her sister, the also actress Vera Farmiga , who convinced her to play the role of the young version of Corinne in the film On the Highlands (2011), directed by Vera herself. From here and with only 16 years Taissa began her career.

He was part of the first season of the horror-thriller series American Horror Story: Murder House (2011). She played the role of Violet Harmon, a sad and depressed girl who lives with her parents in a haunted house.

In Falling in love (2011) she plays the role of Audrey, Edith’s daughter played by her sister Vera, who, due to the age difference –21 years– can certainly pass for her mother.

In 2013, Ryan Murphy cast Taissa again in the cast of American Horror Story: Coven , the third season of the series, where she plays Zoe, a young witch who has just discovered her powers. Thanks also to her sister Vera de ella, who suggested her name to one of the producers, Taissa got the role of Anna in the movie Mindscape (2013). Anna is a troubled teenager who goes to a man to read her memory and determine if she is a sociopath or a victim of trauma.

One of his greatest successes came from the film The Bling Ring (2013), directed by Sofia Coppola . The film tells the story of a group of 5 teenagers who carry out a wave of robberies through the houses of Hollywood celebrities. Taissa coincided with actresses of the stature of Emma Watson or Leslie Mann .

In 2015, he participated in the film The Last Survivors , where a group of teenagers are absorbed by a movie screen and become the victims of the “killer” in the film. In her last film so far, In a Valley of Violence (2015), she is Mary Anne, a young woman who together with her sister run a village hotel
