Marissa Madeline Carroll was born on March 18, 1996, in Los Angeles, California, into a family with a homemaker mother and a father who worked as a contractor. She is the eldest of four siblings and enjoys a close relationship with her three younger brothers—Ned, Lack, and Dylan. Having grown up in Los Angeles and with an aunt, Grace Johnston, who is an actress, it was natural for Carroll to be exposed to the entertainment industry from an early age.
Her introduction to show business came at the age of three when she was discovered by theatrical agent Wendy while accompanying her mother to a beauty salon. This encounter led to a successful early career in advertising, with Carroll appearing in over 60 television commercials, including several national campaigns.
Carroll made her film debut in 2007 as Jenny in the movie Goldfish. That same year, she portrayed the role of the White Queen in Resident Evil: Extinction. Her career gained further momentum in 2008 when she appeared in Swing Vote as Molly Johnson, acting alongside Kevin Costner. The film’s producer, Joshua Michael Stern, praised her dramatic potential and expressed confidence in her future success as an actress.
In 2009, Carroll starred in The Spy Next Door, a family comedy featuring Jackie Chan as an ex-spy turned babysitter. Carroll played one of the children under Chan's character’s care, contributing to the film's comedic appeal. Her versatility was showcased again in 2010 when she was cast by director Rob Reiner in Flipped, where she portrayed a young girl named Juli Baker who falls in love with a boy who initially does not return her feelings.
In 2011, Carroll took on more high-profile roles, including an appearance in Mr. Popper’s Penguins alongside Jim Carrey. That same year, she featured in Machine Gun Preacher, a biographical action drama, and was again selected by Rob Reiner for the film The Magic of Belle Isle. In this heartwarming story, she starred opposite Morgan Freeman, who played a reclusive writer seeking inspiration in his hometown. Speaking fondly of her experience, Carroll said of Freeman, “He told me to remain shy. He is just an amazing person.”
Carroll's talent extended to television as well. In 2013, she appeared as Audrey Miller in two episodes of R.L. Stine’s The Haunting Hour and played Ari Trask in the pilot episode of the TV show Blink. In 2014, she gained further recognition for her role as Karen Grant on the hit political drama Scandal.
As of her most recent public updates, Carroll remains active in both her acting career and philanthropic efforts. She is a passionate supporter and active member of Zoe International, a non-profit Christian organization dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating children who have suffered from abuse and exploitation.
Now in her late twenties, Marissa Madeline Carroll continues to grow as an actress and public figure, building a career rooted in talent, integrity, and compassion.
