Tati Gabrielle Instagram – We meet #TatiGabrielle’s characters before a word is ever spoken.
In #The100, her doe-like eyes burn with a cold glare. As Nora in #TheLastofUs Season 2, she’s introduced amid civil unrest, her face lidded with dread. And as Marienne in #You, they soften with intrigue—we (and Joe) meet her in a library, after all. It’s almost impossible to believe there was ever a time she didn’t recognize her power. “I was a very socially awkward kid and slow to speak,” she says, “but I loved to present my emotions and thoughts visually.”
For our 2025 #HollywoodRising portfolio, Gabrielle discusses her path to acting, finding roles that acknowledge her identity, and lessons learned from the characters she’s portrayed. Head to the link in bio for more.
