Jenny Raven

Jenny Raven’s got one of those careers where you look at her filmography and kinda go, “Whoa, she’s popped up everywhere.” Born in Hong Kong, she’s got that whole Chinese-British thing going for her, which honestly just adds to her screen vibe. She grew up over there, dancing her way through classical ballet and getting trained up for acting, before packing her bags for Toronto and eventually nabbing a Bachelor of Science. (Brains and talent, not fair.) Her first official film gig was in Men Suddenly in Black, which, if you’re into Hong Kong cinema, you’ve probably heard about. But then, Canada called her name. She scored a recurring role as Margo Dubois in Majority Rules!, which was all about that kid-comedy life for a couple years—26 episodes, so not just a blink-and-you-miss-it thing. Fast forward a bit, and she’s in Len and Company, acting alongside heavyweights like Juno Temple and Rhys Ifans at TIFF. But if you’ve seen the 2017 Flatliners remake, you’ll recognize her as Irina Wong—yeah, the one who actually stands out in that wild cast. And let’s not forget Black Mirror’s Arkangel episode—she played Jasmine, and if you’ve seen it, you probably still remember that one (because, honestly, who forgets Black Mirror episodes?). She also showed up in Designated Survivor as Sasha Dixon, and if crime and mystery shows are your jam, she’s been all over the place: Private Eyes, Jack Ryan, Good Witch, Lost Girl—the list just keeps going. Basically, if you’ve watched TV in the last decade, you’ve probably seen her face, even if you didn’t realize it.
