Career

Starting as a child actress, her first role was the four-year-old version of Heather Paige Kent's character in a 2001 episode of That's Life.[3] She appeared as Celina Rice in the 2007 film Badland.[4]

As an adult, Currey played Carol in the 2017 horror film Annabelle: Creation in her breakout role.[5] She said, "I've never done a horror film before and I've never had to scream like that. The movie is very cool, sort of an homage to 1960s horror films."[6]

Currey reunited with Annabelle: Creation director David F. Sandberg in the DC Extended Universe 2019 film Shazam!, where she portrayed Mary Bromfield.[5] In 2022, she starred in the thriller Fall with Virginia Gardner, and reprised the role of Mary Bromfield in the 2023 sequel Shazam!
