Carlson Elizabeth Young[1] (born October 29, 1990[2]) is an American actress. She is known for her roles on Disney Channel's As the Bell Rings,[3] the film Premature, Comedy Central's Key & Peele, and as Brooke Maddox in the first two seasons of the MTV television series Scream.[4][5]

Career

Young made her directing debut in 2018 with "The Blazing World," a short film inspired by Young's own dreams.[6] In 2020 it was announced that the film would be turned into a feature-length film, directed and starring Young.[7]

Personal life

Young is originally from Fort Worth, Texas.[1][8] She moved to Los Angeles and attended the University of Southern California,[9] where she studied creative writing and enjoyed writing poetry.[10]

In January 2016, Young became engaged to Foster the People member and producer Isom Innis.[11] Innis had proposed after he and Young were rescued from a mountain in Iceland.[12][13] They were married on April 29, 2017 in Fort Worth, Texas at Saint Andrew's Episcopal Church which Young attended as a child.[8]

Despite being active for many years, Young says that it was after she appeared in the TV series Scream when she achieved a higher level of notoriety while in public. “I’m still not quite used to it, but it definitely happens,” she says.[14]
