Hey there, lovely readers! It's Melissa Roxburgh here, ready to take you on a journey through my adventures in acting. From the humble beginnings of Diary of a Wimpy Kid to the galactic world of Star Trek Beyond, it has been quite a wild ride.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules

My first major film role came in 2011 when I joined the cast of "Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules." Playing the character Heather Hills was an absolute blast. Being part of such a beloved book series turned movie franchise was both exciting and nerve-wracking at the same time. But hey, who doesn't love some good old teenage drama?

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days

The success and positive feedback from "Rodrick Rules" paved my way for yet another adventure in Greg Heffley's wimpy world. In 2012, I reprised my role as Heather Hills in "Diary Of A Wimpy Kid: Dog Days." The summer vacation theme brought back so many memories from my own childhood summers spent with friends and family.

Supernatural

After conquering high school hijinks with those lovable characters from "Diary Of A Wimpy Kid," I dived headfirst into supernatural territory by joining one incredibly long-running show – Supernatural. As Nora Havelock on Season 10 Episode 5 titled “Fan Fiction,” I got to experience firsthand what it’s like being part of such an iconic television series.

Being welcomed into this tight-knit family was truly heartwarming. The dedication and passion that surrounded every aspect were infectious - not just among the cast but also among its incredible fans known as #SPNFamily.

The Marine 4: Moving Target

In between fighting off ghosts and ghouls (or at least pretending to), I had the opportunity to explore a different genre altogether. In 2015, I joined the cast of "The Marine 4: Moving Target" alongside Mike 'The Miz' Mizanin.

Being part of an action-packed film like this was a whole new world for me. The adrenaline rush from filming those intense fight scenes and stunts was absolutely exhilarating. It required discipline, focus, and physical strength - qualities that pushed me beyond my limits as an actress.

Star Trek Beyond

Now let's talk about one of the highlights of my career – "Star Trek Beyond." Stepping foot into the futuristic universe created by Gene Roddenberry was nothing short of mind-blowing. As Ensign Syl in this epic space adventure released in 2016, I got to work with some incredible talents like Chris Pine and Zoe Saldana.

Every day on set felt like stepping onto another planet (pun intended). The attention to detail in creating these otherworldly environments made it easy for us actors to immerse ourselves fully into our characters' journeys. Plus, who wouldn't want their own personal transporter? Beam me up!

Valor

From fighting aliens among distant stars, I took a detour back down to Earth with "Valor," a television series that aired from 2017-2018 on The CW network. Playing Captain Madeline 'Maddie' Rawlings allowed me to tap into yet another facet of storytelling – exploring themes such as love, loyalty,and sacrifice within military culture.

This role challenged me both emotionally and physically; it required digging deep into understanding what motivates individuals serving their country while also dealing with personal demons along the way.

Manifest

And now we come full circle – or should I say looped flight path? Since its premiere in September 2018 until its final season conclusion earlier this year (2023), Manifest has taken audiences on a thrilling journey through time and mystery. As Michaela Stone, I had the privilege of being part of this captivating ensemble cast.

The show's unique premise, combined with its dedicated fanbase, made each day on set feel like an incredible adventure. Exploring complex themes such as fate and destiny while delving into the lives of these interconnected passengers was both challenging and rewarding as an actor.

Mindcage

Looking ahead to the future (and no spoilers here), my latest project is called "Mindcage." While I can't reveal too much just yet, let's just say it involves a whole lot of psychological twists and turns that will keep you at the edge of your seat!

Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting venture – trust me when I say it'll be worth the wait.

Conclusion

So there you have it - a glimpse into my acting adventures from Diary Of A Wimpy Kid to Star Trek Beyond and everything in between. Each role has shaped me as an actress in different ways, allowing me to explore various genres while connecting with amazing co-stars along the way.

But none of this would've been possible without all your love and support throughout these years. Your dedication fuels my passion for storytelling even more than words can express.

Thank you for joining me on this wild ride so far! And remember: dreams do come true if you work hard enough...and maybe have a little bit of luck along the way.
