Biography
Britney was born in 1990 in the family of Beverly and Ryan Robertson, the owner of a small restaurant. The future actress in South Carolina has grown. From childhood, Britannia took part in the productions of the local theater and early realized that she wanted to become an actress.
At fourteen, Brittany Robertson moved to Los Angeles to visit her grandmother. At that time, she combined her studies with constant attempts to find work on television. The novice actress got, for the most part, episodic roles in TV shows and television films.
TV career
At the age of 10, Brittany made her television debut in the adventure television series Sheena, based on the comic books by Jerry Iger.
In 2005, the actress received a small role in the sitcom "Freddy" Conrad Jackson. Critics smashed to pieces, calling him "stupid" and "annoying." After the completion of the first season, there was no continuation.
Brittany appeared twice in the detective television series Law and Order, in 2008 in the episode Infants, and a year later in the episode Family Values.
In 2011, the actress got the role of Cassie Blake in the fantasy television series Secret Circle. This series, like The Vampire Diaries, is based on the novel by Lisa Jane Smith. The pilot episode of The Secret Circle was watched by more than 3 million viewers, but with each new episode the audience was rapidly declining. Critics have responded ambiguously about the new television series: to some, it seemed extremely unfortunate, to others - a completely normal teenage drama with elements of mysticism. Due to low audience ratings, the series was closed after the first season, although the creators of the series planned to continue.
After the closure of The Secret Circle, Brittany Robertson received an offer from the producers of the sci-fi series Under the Dome to play the role of Angie McAlister - the main character in the television series. Critics reacted more favorably to this project with the participation of the actress than to The Secret Circle, and the audience accepted it much better. More than 13 million people watched the first season of the series Under the Dome. High ratings allowed to extend the television series for the second and third seasons.
Movie career
Britney Robertson performed her first prominent role in feature films in 2006, playing Ashley in the comedy of Scott Marshall in the comedy "Do Not Give to the Steins." Both from film critics and from viewers, the film received mixed reviews.

In addition to Brittany, the main roles in the film were played by Steve Carell and Alison Pill.

In 2008, Brittany starred in "Inside," the first horror movie of her career. The director of the picture was Fidon Papamichael, the main role, the role of Lindsay, was played by Elizabeth Rice, and her best friend was played by Brittany Robertson. Films with this actress are diverse, she tries herself in different genres. However, “Inside” can not be called the most successful film with her participation - the picture did not receive much fame, and the box office was more than modest.
In 2011, the actress reappeared in a horror film. The new project with her participation was "Scream 4" by Wes Craven.
Personal life
In 2011, on the set of the romantic film "For the First Time," Brittany met actor Dylan O'Brien.
