Biography of Raegan Revord

Raegan Revord is a young American actress whose career began at the age of 6. She gained fame for her role as Missy Cooper, Sheldon Cooper's twin sister, in the series "Young Sheldon," which is a prequel to the sitcom "The Big Bang Theory." Her acting portfolio also includes roles as Megan in the dramedy "Modern Family" and Anna in the short action film "Jia."

Childhood

Regan Revord was born in the winter of 2008 in San Diego, California. She is the only daughter of Holly and Jacob Revord, security leader at Sony Pictures Entertainment.

From an early age, the girl loved to perform for her family and was delighted to see smiles on their faces. Her mother always supported her little one in all her endeavors. Realizing Regan's strong desire to act in films, Holly moved with her closer to the "dream factory" in Los Angeles.

From the age of 4 or 5, Regan began appearing in commercials, but she quickly understood that she wanted more. Her mother hired a manager for her daughter, who started taking the little girl to various castings, and eventually, Regan landed a role in the series "Modern Family".

Acting Career

Regan Revord appeared as Megan in two episodes of "Modern Family." She first appeared in the episode "Won't You Be Our Neighbor?" in 2014. Two years later, she was featured in the episode titled "Storm."

During this time, the young actress also starred in two short films: "Tortoise" (as a Ballerina) and "Jia" (as Anna). In the former, she acted alongside David Arquette, who played the lead role, while in the latter, she took on the main role herself as a female warrior named Jia in her childhood.

In parallel, Revord landed guest roles in the series "W Bob and David," "Grace and Frankie," and "Teachers."

One of the most interesting projects in which Regan played a central role was the "The Big Bang Theory" spin-off titled "Young Sheldon"—the story of a child prodigy named Sheldon Cooper who doesn't fit in with his family or at school.

The young actress was cast as Missy Cooper, Sheldon's twin sister. Unlike the genius but sociophobic Sheldon with his quirks, she may not boast high grades, but when it comes to empathy and relationships with others, she is far ahead.

Speaking about acting together, the young actress, who grew up in front of the viewers, expressed her admiration for how easy and fun it was to work with her co-star:

Actually, it feels like I really have a twin brother. I'm an only child, just like Iain, and we are literally... I swear, I'm just amazed that we have different blood types, that's how similar we are! Yes, we are just the same! We love literally the same things, play the same games...

To authentically portray her character, the girl meticulously watched "The Big Bang Theory" and perfected her Texas accent by observing actress Laurie Metcalf, who played Sheldon and Missy's mother in the original series.

In 2017, Regan played the main character as a child in the horror movie "Wish Upon." An older version of the character was played by Joey King. Revord also landed the main role in the short film "I See You."

Soon after, the young actress was cast as Ainsley in the television series "Alexa & Katie," followed by her role as Benny in the project "Day by Day"—a series of podcasts inspired by our new reality.

Raegan supports charitable organizations involved in animal protection. She has three dogs of her own. She is also a volunteer at a children's hospital.

Like Missy Cooper, Raegan is a sociable person. Once, she noticed actor Joel McHale in a restaurant, with whom she once appeared in a commercial long ago, approached him, and reminded him of that period. It turned out the actor remembered the four-year-old partner who had changed so much since then and invited her to his table. Raegan said about him:

…shooting a commercial was cool! The filming took place... I forgot the name of the place... near Mount Whitney AHA... and we spent a whole three days in the desert! I had one day off, then we climbed the mountain, walked in the forest... it was really great. We also crossed a stream, that was fun too - but the water was so cold, and I took off my shoes and went barefoot.
