From making her acting debut in a blockbuster Marvel feature film, to breaking the mold as the first Asian American leading lady in a YA romantic comedy, award winning actor and producer Lana Condor has quickly become one of the most in-demand talents in the entertainment industry today. 

In 2026 Condor is poised for a major year in film, led by her upcoming Amazon MGM Studios thriller Pretty Lethal, debuting March 25 globally on Prime Video. The action-packed feature follows five ballerinas—barely on speaking terms—who are forced to weaponize years of brutal training when their bus breaks down and they seek shelter at a remote roadside inn run by a mysterious former ballet prodigy (Uma Thurman). As the situation turns deadly, rivalries become survival instinct, and grace and discipline become their greatest weapons. Condor stars alongside Thurman, Iris Apatow, Millicent Simmonds, Avantika, and Maddie Ziegler. 

Later this year, she showcases her comedic range in Coyote vs. Acme (August 28, Warner Bros and Ketchup Entertainment), opposite Will Forte and John Cena, in the live-action/animated courtroom comedy following Wile E. Coyote’s lawsuit against the Acme Corporation. She will also headline the survival thriller Devil’s Mouth (Amazon MGM Studios) alongside Kathryn Newton, which follows college friends trapped in an underwater cave system with a bull shark. 

Condor recently wrapped production on the romantic comedy Whodunnit, directed by Nora Kirkpatrick, where she stars as Tess Klein—a woman forced to rethink everything after a spectacularly derailed proposal and an unexpected rebound weekend—with Jack Whitehall, Robbie Amell, Lizze Broadway, Elizabeth Mitchell, and Randall Park. 

Condor became a household name in 2018 with the release of Netflix’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, which quickly became a global sensation. Based on Jenny Han’s New York Times best-selling novel, the film cemented its place in pop culture and helped redefine on-screen representation—showing that Asian American teens could finally see themselves as complex, romantic leads worthy of the full love story. Critics and outlets praised Condor’s star-making turn as Lara Jean Covey, with Vanity Fair writing, “Get ready to be charmed by Lana Condor,” and Vulture declaring, “Condor is a ready-made star,” among many others. Condor reprised her role in the hit sequels To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You (2020) and To All the Boys: Always and Forever (2021). She earned a Teen Choice Award nomination for Choice Drama Movie Actress in 2019 and received the HCA Award: Next Generation of Hollywood at the 2020 Hollywood Critics Association Awards. 

Additional credits for Condor include starring opposite Chase Stokes in Valiant One; the romantic comedy Worth the Wait for Tubi alongside Andrew Koji and Ross Butler; and a guest-starring arc on the critically acclaimed, Emmy, Golden Globe, and Peabody Award winning hit series Abbott Elementary opposite Quinta Brunson. Her film and television work also includes HBO Max’s sci-fi romantic comedy Moonshot opposite Cole Sprouse, James Cameron’s Alita: Battle Angel (Twentieth Century Fox), Netflix’s limited comedy series Boo, Bitch (which she also executive produced), the Russo brothers’ action series Deadly Class (SYFY), and her feature film debut as Jubilee in X-Men: Apocalypse opposite Jennifer Lawrence and James McAvoy. In animation, she starred as the title character in DreamWorks/Universal’s Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken opposite Jane Fonda, Toni Collette, and Colman Domingo. 

Originally from Can Tho, Vietnam, Condor was adopted by her parents at four months old (along with her brother, Arthur) and spent her early years in the Chicago area. As a child she lived in both Washington state and New York City, training in classical ballet in both locations. She took classes at multiple prestigious dance academies including The Joffrey School of Classical Ballet, The Gelsey Kirkland Academy of Classical Ballet, and The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. As a high school freshman living in New York, Condor took her first acting class and was hooked. During her sophomore year, Condor and her family moved to Los Angeles where she danced alongside apprentices at The Los Angeles Ballet and continued to develop her passion for acting by joining the theater department at Notre Dame Academy and studying at the Yale Summer Conservatory for Actors. While going out on a handful of auditions her senior year, Condor booked “X-Men: Apocalypse.” She has been working ever since. 

On the digital front, Condor’s social media following skyrocketed in 2018 soaring to over 10 million dedicated fans internationally (and growing). She has used her newfound platform to generate awareness for causes near to her heart, including The Asia Foundation where she established a scholarship to send underprivileged girls and women to school in Vietnam.
