Emily Ertz

Emily Ertz is a New York–based actor, singer, dancer, stunt performer, and U.S. Marine Corps veteran known for bringing bold, unforgettable women to life. A dramatic coloratura soprano with a background in dance, aerial arts, and stage combat, she thrives in roles that balance comedy with grit—from eccentric scene-stealers and sharp-tongued Southern women to formidable authority figures and emotionally layered heroines. Emily’s military experience gives her a grounded authenticity in high-stakes, action-driven stories, while her fearless comedic instincts and larger-than-life personality make her equally at home in offbeat comedies and musical theatre. She is drawn to projects that celebrate strong, complex women, whether they’re commanding a courtroom, surviving impossible odds, or stealing every scene with wit and charm. When she’s not performing, Emily is usually chasing her next adventure—whether that’s learning a new stunt skill, playing country music, or adding another unexpected talent to her ever-growing toolbox.
