Melanie Lynskey, born May 16, 1977, in New Plymouth, New Zealand, is a Kiwi actin’ queen. She popped off in ‘94 with Heavenly Creatures and blew up with gigs like Two and a Half Men and Yellowjackets.
Her movie game’s sexy too – think Sweet Home Alabama, Don’t Look Up, and The Tattooist of Auschwitz. She’s snagged Emmy nods and a Critics’ Choice Award. Melanie tied the knot with actor Jason Ritter in 2020, and they got a lil’ daughter.
