Rosabell Laurenti Sellers: A Journey from Coco Chanel to Tyene Sand
Childhood and Early CareerRosabell Laurenti Sellers, born on March 27, 1996, is an Italian-American actress who followed her parents' footsteps into the film industry. Her father, Fabrizio Laurenti, is an Italian director and screenwriter, while her mother, Mary Sellers, is an American actress. Rosabell's multilingual childhood and dual citizenship prepared her for a career in both Europe and Hollywood.
Acting Training and Theatre Debut
At the age of eight, Rosabell made her theatrical debut in the play "La Mama" alongside her brother Diego. The play toured Poland and Austria, but the family chose to settle in Rome. Rosabell honed her acting skills at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, despite her longing for the live audience connection that theater provides.
Film Debut and Breakthrough Roles
Rosabell's film debut came in 2006 as a young Coco Chanel in the miniseries of the same name. Her breakthrough role, however, was in the 2009 drama "I Remember Anne Frank." This portrayal of Anne Frank deeply affected Rosabell personally and professionally, sparking her passion for character development and intensive research.
"Cinderella" and "Mia and Me"
In 2011, Rosabell landed the role of 13-year-old Aurora in the live-action film "Cinderella." She then starred in the children's television series "Mia and Me" as a young orphan who travels to the magical land of Centopia. Rosabell left the series after two seasons, citing her age and the need to focus on her studies in London.
"Game of Thrones" and Tyene Sand
Rosabell achieved international recognition with her role as Tyene Sand in HBO's epic fantasy series "Game of Thrones." She joined the cast in 2014 as one of the eight "Sand Snakes," the bastard daughters of Oberyn Martell. The showrunners modified Tyene's appearance and backstory from the original books, and Rosabell underwent karate and wushu training for the character's fight scenes. Tyene's storyline spanned from Season 5 to Season 7.
Personal Life and Activism
Rosabell is an active Instagram user, sharing glimpses of her professional and personal life. She dislikes self-promotion and prefers to live an ordinary life outside the spotlight. Her hobbies include volleyball, horseback riding, archery, piano, classical dance, and tap dancing. She is also a dedicated philanthropist, founding the Young Actors for Humanitarian Engagement and supporting causes such as anti-human trafficking and anti-racism.
Recent Projects and "Willow"
Rosabell has continued to pursue acting roles in both Hollywood and Italy. One of her recent projects is the adventure fantasy series "Willow," which premiered on Disney+ in 2022. She plays a young woman who joins a quest to save the world alongside the titular sorcerer, played by Warwick Davis.
