She is the younger sister of acclaimed actress Vera Farmiga, who received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Up in the Air (2009) and a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her performance in Bates Motel (2013). The sisters share a close bond, with a notable age difference of 21 years.
Taissa Farmiga entered the world of acting when she was cast to play the younger version of her sister in the film Higher Ground (2011), directed by Vera Farmiga. At the time, Taissa was fifteen years old and had no formal acting experience. Despite this, her performance was praised following the film's premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, marking her breakthrough in the industry.
Taissa gained widespread recognition for her role in the first season of the anthology series American Horror Story: Murder House (2011), in which her portrayal of Violet Harmon earned her the informal title of "scream queen." She went on to appear in several other installments of the series, further solidifying her status in the horror genre.
Beyond television, Taissa Farmiga has taken on a range of roles in independent and mainstream films. She appeared in Sofia Coppola's crime drama The Bling Ring (2013), the psychological thriller Mindscape (also released as Anna, 2013), and starred alongside Warren Beatty in the comedic drama Rules Don't Apply (2016). Each project showcased her versatility and deepened her presence in the film industry.
Taissa Farmiga continues to diversify her roles. In Clint Eastwood’s film The Mule (2018), she plays Ginny, the granddaughter of Eastwood's character, bringing a grounded and heartfelt presence to the story. Her growing body of work reflects a pattern of selecting complex, emotionally driven characters that align with her evolving artistic range.
With a career that began under the guidance of her sister, Taissa Farmiga has carved out an identity uniquely her own. Frequently lauded for her mature and emotionally resonant performances, she remains a rising figure in both horror and dramatic cinema. Her work in American Horror Story and films such as The Bling Ring and The Mule exemplifies her ability to seamlessly transition between genres and deliver compelling portrayals.
