Emma Elizabeth Myers (born April 2, 2002) is an American actress. She is best known for her breakthrough role as Enid Sinclair in the Netflix series Wednesday (2022–present). She has since appeared in the television series A Good Girl's Guide to Murder (2024–present), and in films such as Family Switch (2023) and A Minecraft Movie (2025), with the latter earning her a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award. She was featured in the 2026 class of the Forbes 30 Under 30 list.

Emma Elizabeth Myers was born on April 2, 2002 in Orlando, Florida. A child of two lawyers, she is the second of four sisters, all of whom attended a homeschool cooperative. Initially wanting to be a dancer, she first showed interest in acting at age 5, after having accompanied her older sister to auditions. She has said that finding a sense of community in her homeschool environment was difficult, though this was alleviated by her involvement in extracurricular activities such as dancing and local theater. At age 12, she took a hiatus from acting, during which she pivoted her focus to competitive dance. When she was 16, she and her family moved to Atlanta, Georgia, where she began to pursue acting more seriously.

In her youth, Myers became a fan of the emo and alternative bands Twenty One Pilots, Panic! at the Disco, and Fall Out Boy, as well as YouTube creators Dan and Phil. She spent her free time playing adventure games such as Ace Attorney and Professor Layton, and was also part of online fandoms for the Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings franchises, both of which inspired her love for fantasy.

In 2010, Myers had minor roles in the film Letters to God, the television series The Glades, and the short film Crooked. Following her acting hiatus from ages 12 to 16, she had more roles in the television shows The Baker and the Beauty and Dead of Night, the short film Deathless, and the television film A Taste of Christmas, all in 2020. In 2021, she appeared in the Lifetime film Girl in the Basement.

Myers made her breakthrough in 2022 when she appeared as Enid Sinclair in the Netflix series Wednesday, after initially auditioning for the titular role. She made her next appearance the following year in the film Southern Gospel (2023). Later that year, she starred as CC Walker in the Netflix body swap comedy Family Switch alongside Jennifer Garner, Ed Helms, and Brady Noon.

In 2024, Myers starred as the lead character, Pippa Fitz-Amobi, in the British mystery thriller television series A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, based on the novel of the same name. Reviewers praised her performance in the show, with The New York Times writing that "Myers's luminous performance beautifully and poignantly synthesizes [her character's] blend of panic, regret, embarrassment, determination, courage, fear and stubbornness".

In 2025, Myers starred as Natalie in the film A Minecraft Movie, based on the video game Minecraft. The role earned her the award for Favorite Butt-Kicker at the 2025 Kids' Choice Awards, in addition to a nomination for Favorite Movie Actress. Later that year, she voiced Chita in an episode of the third season of the Disney+ anthology series Star Wars: Visions.

In 2026, Forbes included Myers in that year's class of their annual 30 Under 30 list. She will voice a character in the animated film The Angry Birds Movie 3, which is set to release in December 2026.

Myers has partnered with brands such as the fashion houses Coach and Calvin Klein and the tech company Samsung. For GivingTuesday 2023, she partnered with American retailer Claire's in support of the nonprofit medical corporation St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Myers grew up in a Christian household, but did not actively follow the religion until later on when she "found God during a really challenging time in [her] life". She is a fan of Korean culture, partly due to her grandparents having lived in Busan for eight years. She is also bilingual, being able to speak Korean in addition to English.
