EXCLUSIVE: After being seen starring alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, Lily Gladstone and more in Martin Scorsese’s historical epic Killers of the Flower Moon, based on the work of non-fiction by David Grann, actress Cara Jade Myers has signed with Stride Management for representation in all areas.
Bringing in over $154M since its debut in theaters in late October, Apple Original Films’ Killers tells the true story of predatory white Oklahomans’ furtive yet systematic murder of the Osage people in the 1920s following the discovery of oil on their land. In the awards contender, Myers plays Anna Kyle Brown, one of nearly two dozen victims of what newspapers at the time dubbed the “Reign of Terror.”
In addition to the Cannes-premiering Killers, Myers has been seen on the award-winning series This Is Us and Rutherford Falls on NBC and its parent company’s streamer, Peacock, respectively. An enrolled member of the Wichita and Kiowa tribes, she also currently has a documentary in production, another feature in pre-production, and two scripts in development.
Stride was founded by Mike Nilon and Matt Shelton in 2018. In addition to Academy Award winner Nicolas Cage (Dream Scenario), notable clients include Emily Carey (House of the Dragon), Julian Dennison (Hunt for the Wilderpeople), Karen Fukuhara (The Boys), Rob Morgan (Smile), Mike O’Malley (Heels), Kate Siegel (The Fall of the House of Usher), and Suzanna Son (Red Rocket), to name a few.
Myers continues to be represented by Persona PR and her attorney, Emily Downs, at Meyer & Downs.

Before Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon debuted at Cannes, audiences had a preview of what his leading lady Lily Gladstone could do in the Sundance title Fancy Dance, in which she played a Native American aunt who would do anything to keep her family together. Family plays a big part in Scorsese’s adaptation of David Grann’s 2017 bestseller too; in his telling of the horrific true crimes committed against the oil-rich Osage people of Oklahoma. Gladstone’s real-life character, Mollie, marries Ernest Burkhart (Leonardo DiCaprio) and stumbles on a plot devised by her husband’s duplicitous uncle William King Hale (Robert De Niro) to kill her kinfolk for their money. Here, Gladstone discusses what it meant to tell Mollie’s story.

Fury of the Gods,” “The Flash” and “Blue Beetle”) turning out to be financial failures.In a win for Gen Z, studio execs determined Zendaya’s star wattage is so huge now that two of her movies — “Dune: Part 2” and “Challengers” — were delayed a year due to the strikes, so she can promote them to her hoards of fans. And baby boomers were dinged by the big-time tanking of the nostalgic “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,” starring a now 81-year-old Harrison Ford who schlepped around New York and Europe.Despite all the madness — and a sea of schlock — some excellent films hit theaters this year.
Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor Based on the nonfiction book by David Grann, “Killers of the Flower Moon” stars Leonardo DiCaprio as Ernest Burkhart, a WWI vet who travels to Oklahoma to work for his wealthy uncle, William King Hale, played by Robert De Niro. It’s the early 1920s, and this part of Oklahoma sits on lots of oil, whose rights are owned by the Native American Osage and other tribes. They are prosperous, some even rich, and it’s here that Ernest meets Mollie (Lily Gladstone).
