2022–2024: Early work and film debut Fisher began her professional acting career in 2022. Her debut film role was as Tia in the New Zealand post-apocalyptic film Northspur. During the same year, she appeared in two episodes of the Australian crime-comedy television series My Life Is Murder. She played the character Kassie, whose mother becomes possessed by a demon. She played Mildred, a precocious 12-year-old girl who goes on a quest with her estranged magician father, played by Elijah Wood, to find a mythical creature known as the Canterbury Panther. The role had previously been played by twins Anniston and Tinsley Price in seasons 1–4. The show's creators, the Duffer brothers, recast the role because the character required a larger presence and more maturity for the final season's storyline, which explores themes of lost innocence. Executive producer Shawn Levy stated that the season centers on Holly to emphasize the show's focus on vulnerability. Fisher filmed scenes involving stunts, including an underwater sequence with actress Cara Buono. While working on the production, she received guidance from her co-stars, Finn Wolfhard and Bower, regarding acting techniques. == Filmography ==
