జీవిత చరిత్ర
Meadow Williams embodies a captivating blend of sophistication and wit, glamorous style, and relaxed Southern warmth, reflecting her modest Tennessee farm upbringing alongside her dynamic Hollywood film career. A timeless, luminous Los Angeles beauty who maintains the grounded essence of her rural roots, Williams draws from a rich reservoir of experience in both her acting and modeling pursuits.
Williams began her entertainment journey as a young television actress, appearing in popular shows like Married... with Children (1987), Murder, She Wrote (1984), and The Larry Sanders Show (1992). She transitioned from TV to film with a role in the iconic movie The Mask (1994), starring opposite Jim Carrey. This led to her portrayal as Kevin Bacon’s partner in the Academy Award-winning Apollo 13 (1995). Deeply inspired by director Ron Howard’s vision on that project, Williams credits his influence as a lasting impact on her craft.
More recently, Williams appeared in the action thriller Den of Thieves (2018) alongside Gerard Butler and the prison action film Backtrace (2018) with Sylvester Stallone and Matthew Modine.
She also took on the role of a seductive villainous cult leader in the comic book film Officer Downe (2016), adapted from Joe Casey’s Image Comics graphic novel. Directed by John McNaughton, she starred in The Harvest (2013), an American horror thriller, playing Michael Shannon’s mistress.
A prolific actress, Williams has several projects lined up for release. She stars in After (2019), based on Anna Todd’s bestselling novel, playing a college professor while also serving as a producer alongside Todd on this anticipated adult romance drama. Her work as a screenwriter and producer allows her to explore a wide range of themes and genres.
Upcoming releases include 10 Minutes Gone (2019), a crime thriller featuring Bruce Willis, where Williams portrays a bartender with hidden depths. She also stars in the soon-to-be-released action-thriller Boss Level (2020), directed by Joe Carnahan, playing an assassin alongside Frank Grillo, Mel Gibson, and Naomi Watts. Adding to her busy 2019 lineup is the drama Broken Soldier (2022), where she appears as Ray Liotta’s trophy wife, acting alongside Sophie Turner and Mark Margolis.
Williams finds particular fulfillment in American Traitor: The Trial of Axis Sally (2021), a drama exploring a pivotal chapter in American and world history, starring opposite Al Pacino. Based on a true story, she plays a radio personality who broadcast English-language propaganda for the European Axis powers during World War II.
The film’s script is adapted from William E. Owen’s book Axis Sally Confidential. Pacino portrays the lawyer defending Williams’ character after her arrest for treason. American Traitor: The Trial of Axis Sally is scheduled for release in late 2019 or early 2020.
