3. She’s Very Private
Once some people get a taste of the spotlight, they can’t help but try to be in it every chance they get. That doesn’t seem to be Elizabeth’s style, though. So far, she hasn’t really revealed anything about her personal life. However, as she gets further in her career we will likely learn more about her.
4. She Isn’t Afraid To Speak Her Mind
There are countless celebrities who shy away from taking a stance on certain issues because they’re scared that it could negatively impact their career. Elizabeth, however, is more concerned with standing up for what she believes in than worrying about how people feel about it. She has used her social media presence to speak out against racism and other human rights issues.
5. She’s An Olivia Coleman Fan
Elizabeth isn’t just a talented actress, she’s also a fan of other talented actresses. One of the people whose work she really admires is Olivia Coleman who is best-known for her role as Queen Elizabeth II in The Crown. In February of 2019, Elizabeth posted a photo of Coleman on Instagram with the caption, “THE BEST OF THE BEST”.
6. She’s An Animal Lover

Elizabeth may not have a very long on-screen resume just yet, but it appears that she also has some experience on stage.

It’ll be interesting to see if she continues to do theater or if she completely shifts her focus to movie and TV roles.
9. She’s 30
Due to her role in the Fear Street trilogy, there are some people who may have thought that Elizabeth was in her late teens or early 20s. However, she is actually 30 years old according to several sources. This also lines up with the fact that she graduated from college in 2014.
10. She Might Also Have A ‘Regular’ Job
Acting may not be the only thing Elizabeth is focused on. According to her LinkedIn profile, Elizabeth has been working at a company called Capgemini for almost seven years.
