Early life
Langford was born in Perth, Western Australia, and grew in Applecross, a riverside suburb of Perth. She is Elizabeth Langford's eldest daughter (née Green), a paediatrician, and Stephen Langford, a flying doctor and director of medical services at Royal Flying Doctor Service Western Operations, the eldest daughter of Elizabeth Langford (née Green), a medical specialist and director of medical services. Josephine Langford, Josephine Langford, is also an actor.
Langford began voice lessons with Heidi Lake in 2005 and received classical, jazz, and modern vocal training. She was given a place at Perth Modern School for her senior high school years, where she studied music and drama, was a nationally ranked swimmer, and was a student at the University of Queensland.
Langford was interested in medicine and politics before her time in high school, rather than classical theatre. Langford's first appearance at a Lady Gaga performance, the Born This Way Ball, in 2012, inspired her to play piano. "I've Got a Crush on Zoe Bosch," "Young and Stupid," she wrote on Facebook. "Young and Stupid" is an anti-suicide song written by Laura May in 2013, after three Perth teenagers died. Langford shifted her attention away from swimming and toward music and spectacle for her last year at Perth Modern. She was very popular in a number of musical eistedfods and drama competitions. Langford began attending Hotel Sorrento in 2013 and graduated the same year.
Langford studied at the Principal Academy of Dance & Theatre Arts, majoring in Music Theatre, and appeared in a production of Godspell from 2014 to 2015. In 2015, she was one of five students chosen to participate in the National Institute of Dramatic Art's Advanced Actor Residency (NIDA). In addition, Langford was given a spot in the Western Australian Academy of Programming. She studied at Nicholson's Academy of Screen Acting and portrayed Juan Perón's mistress in its 2015 production of Evita. Langford was given a position in the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts' acting program and planned to begin studies in 2016. However, she never registered and instead focused on career fields.
Career
Langford first appeared in several small independent films, including Story of Miss Oxygen (2015), Imperfect Quadrant (2016), and Daughter (2016). She portrayed the lead character in Daughter, which debuted at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival. In 2016, after declining the offer from Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts, Langford auditioned for Will, a television series centred on the early life of William Shakespeare. She did not get the role.
Langford was then cast as Hannah Baker in the mystery teen drama TV series 13 Reasons Why, playing Baker for the series' first two seasons. When she landed the role, she had only 10 days to get an O-1 visa as she had not worked in the United States before. She researched the role, speaking with a representative of the sexual assault awareness campaign "It's On Us" and a psychiatrist who specializes in adolescence. Several critics lauded her performance as Baker; The Hollywood Reporter wrote: "Langford's heartbreaking openness makes you root for a fate you know isn't possible. The actress' performance is full of dynamic range, setting it against Minnette's often more complicated task in differentiating between moods that mostly go from uncomfortable to gloomy to red-eyed, hygiene-starved despair." She earned various awards and nominations for the role, including a nomination for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Television Series Drama. On 25 May 2018, Langford confirmed that she would not return as Hannah Baker in the third season of the series.
In December 2016, she signed with the William Morris Endeavor agency. She then appeared in her first feature film, The Misguided, an independent comedy-drama by Shannon Alexander, which premiered in January 2018. She also starred as Leah in the 2018 film Love, Simon. In October 2018, she was cast in Avengers: Endgame. However, her scenes were cut from the final film when audiences at test screenings found her scene confusing.
In 2019, Langford co-starred in Knives Out, a murder mystery film. The ensemble cast received critical acclaim, and she was part of various awards and nominations for the role, which included a Critics' Choice Award nomination for Best Cast.
In 2020, she starred in the film Spontaneous, a well-reviewed, dark comedy for which she received a Critics' Choice Super Awards nomination for Best Actress in a Science Fiction/Fantasy Movie. On 12 September 2018, it was announced that Langford had been cast in the web television series Cursed. Set in an re-imagined Arthurian world, Langford portrays Nimue, a teenage girl destined to become the Lady of the Lake. It premiered on Netflix in July 2020.
