Stacey Marie Keba is excited to have played the role of KATE opposite Chloé Jouannet (Killer Coaster, Derby Girl) and Louise Coldefy (Family Business) in Noémie Lefort's French-American feel-good comedy "Mon Héroïne." This Universal Pictures International feature film was released in French theaters on December 14th, 2022 and is now on the TOP 10 Netflix Movie List. It is also available to watch on AppleTV+, Amazon Prime Video, and DVD.
After arriving back in the States from the premiere in Paris, Stacey was called in for a Series Regular role to play Billy Bob Thornton's daughter in Taylor Sheridan's new pilot "Land Man" and she was sent to HBO Producers for a recurring role opposite Robert Downey Jr. on "The Sympathizer." Other recent opportunities include reading for Disney, ABC, Universal, A24, and more.
Upon reflecting on her desire to pursue a career in the arts, Keba determined that it's vital for her to do this work because movies, television, books, and a strong imagination provided her with hope, joy, and a safe outlet to express her emotions--three things that she didn't have a lot of as a kid growing up in a Pennsylvania trailer park and being a caregiver for her mom from a young age.
Before stepping in front of a camera, Stacey was a panelist for the teen reality section of The Intelligencer, The Bucks County Courier Times, and The Burlington County Times, (now rebranded as Philly Burb's Teen Takes) during her senior year of high school and short-lived college career (she dropped out 3 times✌️) where she shared her sometimes controversial opinions and life experiences in over 2 dozen articles. "It was a real confidence builder for me, and it really taught me the importance of being brave and standing by your word even when it catches flack or generates backtalk from complete strangers. I wouldn't be where I am or who I am without that training."
Now fully immersed in front of the camera, Stacey is driven to bring her girl next door with a mysterious edge spirit to every role she takes on while also leading with her values of bravery, empathy, and authenticity. Stacey hopes that by bringing her experience into the roles she accepts, she can be an inspiration for young women to feel safe, seen, heard, and understood across the globe.
She is currently studying with Claire Chubbuck at Ivana Chubbuck's studio in Hollywood and is represented theatrically by her agents Eddie Barnes & Fred Coleman at Media Artists Group and her manager Patch Mackenzie at Cutler Management. She is also represented commercially in NYC by Aayushi Bhargava of Media Artists Group.
