Lexi Underwood may be a new face in Hollywood, but she’s already a contendor for an Emmy for Best Supporting Actress for her role as a daughter of a single mother played by Kerry Washington, in a Limited Series/Movie for  Hulu hit, ‘ Little Fires Everywhere’. Born in 2003, Underwood hasn’t wasted any time getting the ball rolling with her acting career, landing the coveted role on Hulu’s popular drama, ‘Fires’, also starring Reese Witherspoon. Lexi’s character on the show, Pearl Warren, is a very bright high school student and poet who is as dedicated to her passions as like Lexi is in real life.

Lexi has also let her voice be heard loud and clear as an activist for the Black Lives Matter movement, which was ignited as a worldwide protest movement during the summer of 2020 following the murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and more innocent Black citizens. She’s not only made public speeches on racial equality, but also created the ‘We The Voices Of Gen Z’ Roundtable discussions, and has even founded her own production company titled ‘Ultimate Dreamer Productions’.
