Taylor Castro
Young actress, singer, scriptwriter, and songwriter Taylor Castro was born on September 29th, 1999 in Broward County, Florida. She is best known for her acting roles in a series of killer-themed movies produced by Concord Films. Her most notable roles are Ayla in the Lifetime movie "Girlfriend Killer (2017)" (2017) and Abbey in "Marriage Killer (2019)." Her newest leading actress role is Mia Rodson, an up-and-coming singer learning to deal with fame in "Dream Killer (2019)," set to release in 2019.
Since her childhood, even before her debut film role in "Assumed Killer (2013)" (2013) at age 12, Taylor's passion for acting, singing, and writing has only intensified with each year as she continuously increases her professional repertoire to include acting roles in feature films and songwriter credits on her debut album PURE including the hit singles "Be Strong" featured in the film "Boyfriend Killer (2017)" and "I Got You" featured in the film "Girlfriend Killer (2017)." Her music is heard on national radio stations and available for download on all major music streaming platforms.
Taylor's professionalism and talent has been exemplified with seasoned acting professionals such as Christy Carlson Romano, Kate Mansi, Jason Cook, Dina Meyer, Casper Van Dien, Corin Nemec, and Jason London. Taylor's ability to encompass and meticulously portray emotion has been recognized by the Los Angeles Film Awards, who named her Best Young Actress for her portrayal of the increasingly self-doubting, moody-yet-sweet pop-star Mia Rodson in "Dream Killer (2019)." The Actor's Awards, as well, have honored Taylor by recognizing her abilities and granting her the award of Best Young Actress for the role of Abbey, a shy, insecure teenager who comes to find confidence through her intellect in "Marriage Killer (2019)."
Alongside Christy Carlson Romano, Carson Rowland, Gail Soltys, Jacy King, Mia Matthews, Brian Gross, and Miguel Fasa, Taylor Castro has excelled as the leading role of Mia Rodson in "Dream Killer (2019)" (post-production), receiving the award for Best Ensemble by the Actor's Awards.
