Early Roles

Ciara's acting career began at the age of 9. In 2007, under the guidance of Wings Model Management, Bravo participated in the Model and Talent Expo in Texas. She wowed the judges and took home several awards across different categories. Her future agent later revealed in an interview, "The moment I saw Ciara on stage, I knew she was a star."

Through Wings Model Management, Ciara landed her first commercial back home in Kentucky. From there, she did voice work for animated films and appeared in a couple of shorts.
"I went to California in the summer and during the school year - I had a lot of auditions," recalls the young actress.
In 2009, Bravo took a small break. Constantly traveling across the country for shoots and auditions was tough. But her hometown hiatus didn't last long. Producers of Nickelodeon's new musical series "Big Time Rush" set up an online audition for her, and within 24 hours, Ciara was on set in Los Angeles.

The series tells the story of four friends from Minnesota who dream of becoming famous musicians. Ciara played the role of Katie, the younger sister of Kendall (Kendall Schmidt), whose life is turned upside down after moving to Los Angeles. Just like her character, Bravo knew firsthand what it meant to be separated from friends and family. Once filming began, she was splitting time between two cities and staying connected with her dad, brother, and sister mostly through phone calls. "Luckily," Ciara shared, "I was so busy that I didn't have time to miss home."

The series was a hit with audiences and got extended for three more seasons before wrapping in 2013. In 2012, she starred in the series spin-off feature film "Big Time Movie," where the familiar musicians head off on their first international tour to London.

The Rise of an Acting Career

Recognizing that film and television was her calling, Ciara decided to study with renowned American actor and teacher Larry Moss, who had previously worked with Leonardo DiCaprio, Hilary Swank, and other famous performers. To focus on her acting education and career, Ciara temporarily put her directing dreams on hold, delaying her film school plans.

Ciara's hard work and natural talent landed her a role in the comedy-drama series "Red Band Society" (2014-2015), following a group of teenagers in a pediatric ward. She played a patient with anorexia who captures the hearts of two boys. Also featured in the series were Octavia Spencer, Charlie Rowe, Mandy Moore, Bella Thorne, and others. Despite strong ratings, the series was canceled after just one season.

In 2016, Ciara landed one of the main roles in the sci-fi series "Second Chance", based on the "Frankenstein" story. Critics gave the show lukewarm reviews, and it was canceled after just one season.

Bravo found more success with the comedy "Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising". Though she played only a supporting role, she got to work alongside Hollywood stars like Seth Rogen, Rose Byrne, Zac Efron, and many others.

In 2017, Ciara appeared in the powerful drama "To the Bone" (dir. Marti Noxon) about a girl named Ellen (Lily Collins) suffering from anorexia. Bravo played a patient with bulimia who enters treatment alongside Ellen and other patients. Other roles in the drama were played by Keanu Reeves, Leslie Bibb, Carrie Preston, Kathryn Prescott and others.

In 2018, she appeared in the comedy "The Long Dumb Road" (dir. Hannah Fidell) – a road movie about two strangers traveling through the American South.

In January 2019, the first season of the American TV series with elements of action and comedy "Wayne" was released. The story follows a teenager (Mark McKenna) who goes on a motorcycle journey with his girlfriend (Ciara Bravo) to get back a car stolen from his late father. The show is produced by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, authors of "Deadpool".
