Anjelika Washington stars as Beth Chapel, an outcast who befriends Courtney and the other members of the new Justice Society of America. An exceptional television and film actress, she discovered her love for the arts through theater at an early age. Washington recently starred in Netflix’s highly rated original film Tall Girl. Up next, Washington will star in Lena Waithe’s Girls Room, an anthology-style series exploring the pain and power of female adolescence. She is currently recurring on Hulu’s Runaways.
Washington began her career on Amazon’s The Legend of Master Legend. She also appeared in several roles including Warner Bros. Television’s Shameless and Young Sheldon, as well as appearing in Go90’s web series “Verus.”
Born into a family of humanitarians, Washington and her mother started a cheerleading squad for autistic high school students that still exists today in Bakersville, California. The same humanitarian spirit continues as Washington is incredibly committed to child healthcare support efforts via entertainment programs with the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles (CHLA). As a coordinator, Washington organizes fun events for families to ease their minds from the harsh realities and remains and continues to be a staunch advocate for community service, dance programs and art projects that are centered on helping youth.
