Emmy Rossum

Emmy Rossum is an actress who stars as main protagonist Alice Black in the psychological crime thriller series Furious. Created by showrunner Elizabeth Meriwether, the dark series follows Rossum's character, a former police officer turned FBI special agent, as she goes head-to-head with a cunning female serial killer played by Lola Petticrew.

To prepare for the demanding role and handle the show's dark central themes, Rossum and the production team interviewed actual human trafficking survivors. This research helped shape her portrayal with grit and emotional depth as her character navigates a perilous search for justice. Following a quiet debut in late July, the show grew into a viral hit through intense social media chatter, leading to a second season renewal by Disney+ and Hulu.

Beyond her starring role on screen, Rossum has drawn attention for her high-fashion public appearances. At the Emmy Awards, she made a splash on the red carpet wearing a black tailored gown by designer Julie de Libran paired with a crimson lip.
