Katie Douglas (actress)

Kathryn Emily Douglas (born October 19, 1998) is a Canadian actress. Her roles in horror and thriller projects have gained her recognition as a scream queen. Douglas's career started in 2013 with roles in the television series Spooksville (2013–2014) and the film Compulsion (2013). Subsequent television roles included Defiance (2013–2015), Raising Expectations (2016–2018), Mary Kills People (2017–2019), and Pretty Hard Cases (2021–2023). After her first leading film role in the thriller Level 16 (2018), Douglas's breakthrough came with roles in the true crime television films Believe Me: The Abduction of Lisa McVey (2018) and The Girl Who Escaped: The Kara Robinson Story (2023); the latter won her the Canadian Screen Award. Douglas gained wider recognition for her starring role in the Netflix comedy drama series Ginny & Georgia (2021–present). She has since acted in The Walk (2022), Lazareth (2024), and Clown in a Cornfield (2025).
