Early life

Reinhart was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and raised in the nearby town of Bay Village.[1][2] She is of German and French descent and has stated her surname is of German origin.[3][4] She developed a love for singing, acting, and dancing at the age of 10, and begged her mom to drive her to New York for auditions.[5]

Reinhart moved to Los Angeles when she was 18 years old to pursue acting and almost gave up after five months.[5]

Career

Reinhart guest starred on the television series Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and starred in the television pilot for Scientastic![6] She also starred in the films Lilith (2011), Not Waving But Drowning (2012), The Kings of Summer (2013), Gibsonburg (2013), Forever's End (2013), Miss Stevens (2016), and The Good Neighbor (2016).[7][8]

On February 9, 2016, Reinhart was cast as Betty Cooper, "sweet, studious, eager-to-please and wholesome with a huge crush on her longtime best friend, Archie" in The CW's teen drama series Riverdale.[9] The series premiered on January 26, 2017, and is currently renewed for a fifth season.[10] Previously, Reinhart worked on the Fox sitcom Surviving Jack.[11]

Among her late 2010s film roles, Reinhart starred in Mélanie Laurent's Galveston (2018),[12] and in Lorene Scafaria's Hustlers (2019),[13] and made a cameo appearance as an Angel recruit in Elizabeth Banks' Charlie's Angels (2019).[14] On June 14, 2019, it was announced that Reinhart would star as Grace Town in Richard Tanne's upcoming film Chemical Hearts (2020).[15] Chemical Hearts will be distributed by Amazon Studios and is Reinhart's first credit as an executive producer on a film.[15][16]

Writing

On October 8, 2019, it was announced that Reinhart will publish a book of poems called Swimming Lessons: Poems.[17] Reinhart stated she decided she wanted to share her poetry with the world despite her fear of doing so and that her own experiences inspired the collection.[18] The book explores young love and anxiety and depression in the face of fame.[19] Swimming Lessons was originally scheduled to be released on May 5, 2020, but was delayed to September 29, 2020.[17][20][21] In an interview with InStyle, Reinhart teased a possible sequel to Swimming Lessons by stating, "Even as my book is ready to be published now, I'm already working on another. It's not like I'm even working on it, I'm just constantly writing and they're stacking up. Hopefully if my first book does well, I can keep going."[22]
