Here’s a guide to the career of Bill & Ted Face The Music star Brigette Lundy-Paine. While they only have a relatively small list of credits, Brigette Lundy-Paine has been very busy in the last five years. They made their debut in the third episode of MTV series One Bad Choice in 2015 and after a small role in the Joaquin Phoenix / Emma Stone drama Irrational Man, they landed a lead role in 2016 comedy Margot Vs Lily, a YouTube series from Nike.

The show cast Brigette Lundy-Paine as Margot, who makes a bet with overachieving sister Lily (Samantha Marie Ware, Doom Patrol) that she can make a successful webseries, while the latter has to make some friends. Following the series, their next projects included the short One Night Only: Lights Out and a small part playing the girlfriend of Christoph Waltz’s character in 2017’s Downsizing.

2017 would prove to be a busy year for Brigette Lundy-Paine. They played a supporting role alongside Brie Larson, Naomi Watts and Woody Harrelson in the drama The Glass Castle, which was adapted from the biographical book of the same name by journalist Jeannette Walls. Their next movie was The Wilde Wedding, starring Glenn Close, Partick Stewart and John Malkovich. Despite featuring such a great cast, the comedy itself was met with mixed reviews. Brigette Lundy-Paine later made their breakthrough thanks to Atypical, which also debuted in 2017.

Atypical is a Netflix drama that revolves around Sam (Keir Gilchrist, It Follows), a teenager with autism who when the show begins decides it time to find a girlfriend. Brigette Lundy-Paine plays Sam’s sister Casey, who is shown to pick on him but refuses to let anyone else do the same. In the second season, Casey meets and eventually falls for classmate Izzie (Fivel Stewart), with the two making their romance public in season 3. The show has received mostly positive reviews for its handling of autism and LGBTQ themes and it will return for a final season in 2021.

Brigette Lundy-Paine’s most recent project was the long-awaited sequel Bill & Ted Face The Music from 2020. They played Billie in the movie, the daughter of Keanu Reeves’ Ted, who during the story goes on an adventure with Bill’s daughter Thea (Samara Weaving, Ready Or Not).

It’s pronounced Paw-rick, not Pad-raig. Now that’s out of the way, a brief introduction. Padraig has been writing about film online since 2012, when a friend asked if he’d like to contribute the occasional review or feature to their site.

A part-time hobby soon blossomed into a career when he discovered he really loved writing about movies, TV and video games – he even (arguably) had a little bit of talent for it. He has written words for Den of Geek, Collider, The Irish Times and Screen Rant over the years, and can discuss anything from the MCU – where Hawkeye is clearly the best character – to the most obscure cult b-movie gem, and his hot takes often require heat resistant gloves to handle.

He’s super modern too, so his favorite movies include Jaws, Die Hard, The Thing, Ghostbusters and Batman. He can be found as i_Padds on Twitter making bad puns.
