Rebekah Brandes, a talented actress from Baltimore, Maryland, made the bold decision to leave her hometown behind and embark on a journey to Hollywood at the tender age of 18. Her destination was the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts, where she would hone her craft and lay the foundation for a successful acting career.
Upon graduating, Brandes began to make a name for herself in the television world, appearing in a string of popular shows including NCIS, Criminal Minds, Greek, and The Forgotten. However, it was the film industry that truly captured her attention and showcased her impressive range as an actress.
One of Brandes' most notable performances came in 2011, when she starred in the Sundance Film Festival premiere of "Bellflower". The film, which Rolling Stone described as "a thing of toxic beauty", earned her widespread recognition and critical acclaim.
Three years prior, Brandes had already made a significant impact with her lead role in the award-winning film "Midnight Movie". Her outstanding performance earned her a Best Actress nomination at the Chicago Horror Film Festival, solidifying her status as a rising star in the acting world.
