With her springy blond Shirley Temple-like curls, Julia Garner may be one of the most recognisable celebrities in Hollywood — but it seems as though she's finally being recognised for her talent as well as her fabulous hair. The 25-year-old actress is best known for her starring role as Ruth Langmore in the Netflix crime drama Ozark, for which she just took home the 2019 Emmy Award for outstanding supporting actress in a drama series. However, if Ozark is the only place you've seen this talented actress, then you have some catching up to do. As well as in the forthcoming Amazon series Modern Love, here are all the movies and TV shows where you can spot the curly-haired Emmy winner.
