On screen, she also appeared in the Oscar-winning “Sideways” and most recently was featured in Joanna Arnow’s critically acclaimed “The Feeling That the Time for Doing Something Has Passed,” which premiered at Cannes and was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award.
Her television portfolio includes over 150 episodes and performances in series including five seasons of FX’s “Better Things,” two seasons of HBO’s “The Deuce,” “How to Get Away with Murder” opposite Viola Davis, two seasons of “Shining Vale” with Courteney Cox and Greg Kinnear, and Netflix’s political thriller “The Diplomat,” now filming its third season. Reiner also played Agent Sadie Deever in Marvel’s “Ms. Marvel.”
“Alysia’s body of work speaks for itself—she’s bold, versatile, and always compelling, whether in a gritty drama or sharp comedy. We’ve been fans for years, and her passion for storytelling and social impact makes her a perfect fit for Fusion,” said Chris Evans, co-founder of Fusion Entertainment.
Reiner’s theater credits span both sides of the Atlantic, from a one-woman show at the Edinburgh festival in Scotland to her current role in the world premiere of Keiko Green’s “You Are Cordially Invited to the End of the World” at South Coast Rep. In New York, she appeared in productions such as “My H8 Letter to the Gr8 American Theatre” (The Public), “Jayson with a Y” (The New Group) and “Pentecost” (Barrow Group), among others. At the Edinburgh Festival, she received a Critics Choice Award.
Off-screen, Reiner serves as an ambassador and board member for the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media, and is also an active volunteer firefighter.
Fusion Entertainment was founded by Adam Kersh and Evans. Their roster of clients includes Amy Seimetz, Cooper Raiff, Sean Baker, Ira Sachs and Dolly de Leon.
Reiner is repped by Paradigm Talent Agency.
