Alycia Debnam-Carey signs with Gersh for representation across all areas, Deadline reported, adding a new agency relationship as the Australian actress stacks up television, film and fashion work.
Debnam-Carey is widely recognized by TV fans from two major genre franchises. She played Alicia Clark for seven seasons on AMC’s Fear the Walking Dead, the offshoot of The Walking Dead, and appeared as Lexa on The CW’s The 100.
Her recent television résumé includes Hulu’s Saint X and Netflix’s Apple Cider Vinegar. She also led Prime Video’s The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart in the title role.
Deadline reported that Debnam-Carey received Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards nominations for Apple Cider Vinegar and The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart.
What is Alycia Debnam-Carey doing next?
Debnam-Carey is headed to Queenstown as a series regular, according to Deadline. The series stars Rufus Sewell, Frances O’Connor and Te Kohe Tuhaka, with production already taking place in the New Zealand resort town that gives the show its name.
The drama is set around Queenstown’s high-end ski world, where Deadline says a wealthy family and the people employed by them become tangled in conflicts involving power, loyalty and desire.
On the film side, Debnam-Carey appeared in It’s What’s Inside, the Sundance title later acquired by Netflix. Her other feature credits include Warner Bros.’ Into the Storm and the horror film Friend Request.
She is also in the upcoming Warner Bros. Monsterverse entry Godzilla x Kong: Supernova. Deadline reported that she stars opposite Jack O’Connell and Dan Stevens in the film.
What does signing with Gersh mean?
A talent agency represents actors in seeking and managing professional opportunities, including work in film, television and other entertainment areas. Deadline reported that Gersh will represent Debnam-Carey in all areas, which signals a broad relationship rather than a deal limited to one part of her career.
Gersh is joining an existing team. Deadline reported that Debnam-Carey continues to be represented by Entertainment 360, United Management and Hansen Jacobson Teller.
Debnam-Carey has also built a profile outside acting. Deadline reported that she became Dior’s first Australian Fashion Ambassador, fronted global campaigns for Shiseido and Philosophy’s Amazing Grace fragrance, and previously served as a Cartier ambassador.
The Gersh move arrives as Debnam-Carey’s slate stretches from streaming drama to studio franchise filmmaking, with Queenstown in production and Godzilla x Kong: Supernova still ahead.
