Breakout Star Mia Tomlinson Signs Landmark Deal with UTA

Mia Tomlinson, who emerged as the breakout star of last year’s supernatural hit “The Conjuring: Last Rites,” has signed with UTA. New Line’s record-setting ninth installment of the hit global horror franchise marked the feature film debut for the fast-rising Brit, who has experience across film, TV and theater. In a critically praised performance, she portrayed the adult Judy Warren, the daughter of Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson’s paranormal investigators Lorraine and Ed Warren. Released by Warner Bros. Pictures on Sep. 5, “The Conjuring: Last Rites” has so far earned almost $500 million globally Prior to “The Conjuring: Last Rites,” Tomlinson appeared in “Bandits,” Nick Alexander’s award-winning short film, which earned Gold at the Cannes Young Director’s Awards. She is also known for her supporting lead role in BritBox’s British thriller series “The Beast Must Die,” based on the novel by Nicholas Blake. The five-part series, about a mother plotting the murder of the person she believed killed her son in a hit and run, saw her appear alongside Cush Jumbo, Jared Harris, and Geraldine James. On stage, she portrayed Joan Rivers in Roy Smiles’ “The Funny Girls” at the New Wimbledon Theatre, performing opposite Rosanna Harris. Tomlinson’s first major role came in 2021 when she was cast to star in Netflix’ historical docuseries “The Lost Pirate Kingdom,” about the rise and fall of the early-18th century pirate republic in Nassau, Bahamas. She played famed female pirate Anne Bonny in a cast that also includes James Oliver Wheatley, Sinead MacInnes, and Tom Padley.
