Alexis Arnold, a talented American actress, was born on November 14, 2008, in Houston, Texas. Her mother, Shanda Webb Arnold, is a respiratory therapist from Abilene, Texas, while her father, Matthew Arnold, is a business owner and fisherman who was raised in Houston.
Growing up, Alexis spends her days fishing with her dad and grandfather, and when she's not fishing, she's acting, modeling, or practicing archery with her recurve bow. Her passion for acting began at the tender age of 5, when she expressed interest in the profession. Her parents did some research and submitted her picture to a local Texas agent, and within days, she was signed.
At 8 years old, Alexis also showed interest in becoming a film director, and she's been blessed to be able to assist directors behind the scenes, learning the intricacies of the film industry. She doesn't let her age stop her from pursuing her dreams and learning as much as she can about acting.
In the spring of 2017, Alexis worked alongside Actor and Director Tony Gibson in the feature film Gypsy Moon. She played a cabin girl who experiences a series of events that force her from her home and away from her mother. She finds herself with a stranger who is running for his life, and the two set out into the wilderness, their only hope being that whatever dwells in the dark remains unknown.
In the summer of 2017, Alexis worked with actors Elisabeth Rohm and Richard T. Jones on the set of Sanitatum. She portrayed a young abused and starved girl, young Sydney Heathcote, who is forced to stay locked in a cage when her rich mother feels she needs to be punished. The movie aims to bring awareness to childhood abuse in families of the wealthy.
In the spring of 2018, Alexis played the role of a blind girl whose brother is dealing with a bully at school. The film teaches how heroes can come from all walks of life.
