Scarlett Estevez

Scarlett Estevez is an actor, born 2007.

Estevez began as a child actor with Megan in Daddy's Home in 2015, a part that required her to be funny inside a very loud studio comedy without ever appearing to try, and she returned for the sequel two years later.

The longer job was Trixie Espinoza on Lucifer, which she played from 2016 to 2021. On a series about angels and homicide detectives, Trixie is the one character permitted to be entirely unimpressed by any of it, and she is never once cloying in it, which is not how children written into supernatural procedurals usually turn out. The Disney Channel track ran alongside it: a season on BUNK'D as Gwen in 2019, then the lead in Ultra Violet and Black Scorpion in 2022, a Disney Channel series this catalog does not carry.

The voice work is steady rather than showy, Izzy in The Grinch, Eden in Dew Drop Diaries, additional voices in Minions: The Rise of Gru. There is not much career to assess yet, and pretending otherwise would be dishonest: she has been working since childhood, she is good in comedies aimed at families, and the interesting part has not happened.

Where to start with Scarlett Estevez

There is one obvious door and it is Lucifer, where five years of episodes let you watch a child performer turn into an actor with timing. Trixie is a supporting character, so you are not watching for screen time, you are watching for how rarely she is cloying.

Daddy's Home is the other essential, because studio comedy at that volume punishes any child actor who pushes, and she does not push. The sequel, Daddy's Home 2, is worse and she is the same. Of the rest, Christmas...Again?! is the one that gives her something to carry alone, and The Grinch is the best-made thing her voice appears in. Skip nothing else in particular; there is simply not much of it yet.
