Nurturing an impressive body of work over the past two decades, Emily Osment’s career continues to evolve with exciting and challenging projects.

 

Osment starred alongside Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin in Chuck Lorre’s award-winning Netflix series “The Kominsky Method,” about an actor who years ago had a brief fling with success and is now a revered Hollywood acting coach. The series won a Golden Globe for Best Comedy. Additionally, she had a memorable arc in the Lorre-produced CBS sitcom MOM playing Jodi, a streetwise young drug addict whom Christy (Anna Faris) and Bonnie (Allison Janney) try to help get sober. She also starred in an episode of the hit comedy TWO AND A HALF MEN on the Network. To date, Emily has worked with Lorre on five different series.

 

Osment led the Netflix comedy series “Pretty Smart,” about a snooty, self-proclaimed intellectual forced to move in with her carefree sister and her group of millennial friends. She also lends her voice to the Netflix animated series “DeadEndia,” based on the horror-comedy graphic novels. The show follows a group of kids as they battle supernatural forces during their summer jobs at a haunted house theme park. Osment plays a sardonic thousand-year-old demon who serves as their guide. She also starred in the FOX drama series “Almost Family.” Based on the Australian series, the show centers on an only child whose father reveals that over the course of his pioneering career as a fertility doctor, he used his own sperm to conceive dozens of children.

 

Osment led the Freeform comedy series “Young & Hungry” for five seasons as Gabi Diamond, a personal chef to a wealthy tech entrepreneur. Another notable role was playing Lilly Truscott on the Disney Channel original series “Hannah Montana.” Before ending its remarkable 100-episode run, the show’s success was captured on the big screen with “Hannah Montana, The Movie.”

 

Osment is also a singer/songwriter and releases new music under the moniker Bluebiird and has new music dropping throughout the summer. As a teen she wrote and released two solo albums, All the Right Wrongs and Fight or Flight, and toured worldwide in 2010 at the age of 18.

 

Osment received a Canadian Screen Award and a Prism Award for her performance in the ABC Family original movie “Cyberbully,” which revolved around a bullied teen who attempts suicide during her junior year of high school. The movie is now shown in high schools across the country to better help educate teenagers on the dangers of cyber bullying.

 

Osment lends her voice to the animated films “Holidaze: The Christmas that Almost Didn’t Happen,” “Lilo and Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch,” “The Hunchback of Notre Dame II,” “Jungle Book 2,” “Edward Fudwupper Fibbed Big,” “Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2,” “Beverly Hills Chihuahua 3,” Disney XD’s “Kick Buttowski,” Academy Award-winning “From Up on Poppy Hill” and “Family Guy.”

 

A native of Los Angeles, Osment grew up in a family of actors. Her father is an accomplished stage actor who has appeared in numerous television and film productions, and her older brother Haley is an Oscar nominated actor. She studied theatre at Occidental College in Eagle Rock, Calif., and in her spare time enjoys snowboarding, rock climbing, hiking, golfing, spending time with her dog, Joe, and cheering on the Los Angeles Dodgers. She is their #1 fan.
