Luna Lanie, born Delanie Frances Wheeler on November 25, 1994, in Nashville, Tennessee, is an American cosplay performer and social media personality. She is the youngest of four siblings, with two older sisters and a younger brother. Her family endured personal loss when her sister Amanda passed away on March 9, 2018, following the earlier death of their father. Lanie publicly expressed her condolences on social media but did not disclose the cause of her sister's passing.
During high school, Lanie developed a strong interest in costume play, often dressing up as Disney princesses for parties and local events. After enrolling in college for her freshman year, she temporarily paused her studies due to a car accident that required medical leave. It was during her recovery that a friend introduced her to professional cosplay, a moment that proved pivotal in shaping her career trajectory.
Discovering a passion for character performance and costume design, Lanie immersed herself in the cosplay community. She began attending conventions across the United States, where her detailed and vibrant costumes quickly gained attention. Much of her professional portfolio was produced in collaboration with well-known cosplay photographer Martin Wong, whose photographs helped amplify her visibility in the cosplay world.
In 2017, Lanie chose to step away from cosplay to explore a career in acting. She began taking roles in television and film, landing minor appearances in shows like Nashville and Billions. Her film debut came with a small part in Clint Eastwood’s The 15:17 to Paris, where she portrayed a background character in a nightclub scene. Her first credited film role followed shortly after, with a part in the 2018 Netflix comedy The Week Of, starring Adam Sandler and Chris Rock, in which she played a supporting character in a wedding party scene.
