Richardson’s earliest on-screen work came in television, with guest appearances on Disney Channel’s Shake It Up and a recurring role on the supernatural ABC Family series Ravenswood (2013–2014). Her film career began to take shape in the mid-2010s, appearing in Christmas Twister (2012), and with supporting roles in The Edge of Seventeen (2016) and M. Night Shyamalan’s Split (2016). Her performances hinted at the depth she would continue to bring to her work.

Her breakthrough arrived with the critically acclaimed independent drama Columbus (2017), in which her nuanced lead performance earned her a Gotham Independent Film Award nomination for Best Actress and established her as a sensitive and expressive young talent capable of carrying complex material. From there, she continued to boldly navigate both indie projects and mainstream fare, including roles in Support the Girls (2018), the heartfelt Five Feet Apart (2019), Unpregnant (2020), and After Yang (2022). In 2022, Richardson expanded her television presence with a standout role as Portia in the second season of HBO’s The White Lotus, winning praise for her blend of vulnerability and wit.

Looking ahead, she appears in projects like Ponies (2026) — a women-led series emphasizing adventurous storytelling — and Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die (2025), an action-adventure comedy directed by Gore Verbinski, among others.
