It’s a big day for Cailey Fleming! The young actress who has already left her mark on some of the biggest franchises in Hollywood is celebrating her 18th birthday today! 🎉

If you’re a fan of The Walking Dead, Star Wars, or the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), you’ve probably seen Cailey’s work—whether you realized it or not. She’s been stealing scenes since she was a child, and now, as she steps into adulthood, fans are more excited than ever to see what she’ll do next.

So let’s take a look at how this rising star has made a name for herself in some of the biggest pop culture moments of our time!

✨ The Girl Who Grew Up in Hollywood

Born on March 28, 2006, in Picayune, Mississippi, Cailey Fleming started acting at a young age. But unlike many child stars, she didn’t just take on minor roles—she landed huge parts in some of the most famous franchises in entertainment history.

At just 18, she’s already been in Star Wars, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and The Walking Dead. That’s the kind of résumé most actors dream of having!

So, how did she get there? Let’s break it down.

🚀 Young Rey in Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

Many fans first saw Cailey when she played young Rey in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Even though it was a brief scene, it was a crucial moment in Rey’s backstory. The flashback showed a young Rey crying out as she was left behind on Jakku, setting up the mystery of her past that played out over the entire Star Wars sequel trilogy.

At just 9 years old, Cailey managed to capture so much raw emotion in just a few seconds—something that made fans instantly curious about her.

🧟 Judith Grimes in The Walking Dead (2018-2022)

While Star Wars was her big break, it was The Walking Dead that made Cailey a household name.

In 2018, she joined the post-apocalyptic hit series as Judith Grimes, the daughter of Rick Grimes and Lori Grimes.

Judith was one of the most important characters in the later seasons of The Walking Dead, and Cailey brought the perfect mix of toughness, heart, and emotion to the role.

🔹 Why was Judith such a big deal?

She was raised in a world overrun by zombies, yet she was still full of hope and kindness.

She carried Rick Grimes’ legacy, becoming a leader in her own right.

Fans loved her relationship with characters like Daryl and Negan.

Cailey played Judith from season 9 to the series finale, growing up alongside the character. Many fans consider her one of the best child actors in The Walking Dead history.

And let’s be honest—who didn’t tear up during her emotional moments in the final episodes? 🥺

🕰️ Young Sylvie in Loki (2021)

As if being in Star Wars and The Walking Dead wasn’t enough, Cailey also joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe!

In Loki (Disney+), she played young Sylvie, the variant of Loki who was taken by the Time Variance Authority (TVA) as a child.

Even though her screen time was short, it was one of the most important moments in the series. Young Sylvie’s escape from the TVA was what set her entire story in motion, leading to the events of Loki Season 1 and beyond.

Cailey’s intensity and emotion in that scene helped make Sylvie one of the best new characters in the MCU.

📺 What’s Next for Cailey Fleming?

Now that she’s officially 18, the future looks even brighter for Cailey. So what’s next?

🔮 More Star Wars?
With Star Wars expanding on Disney+, could we see Cailey return in another flashback as Rey? Fans would love to see it happen!

🧟 The Walking Dead Spinoffs?
The TWD universe is still growing, with spinoffs for Rick & Michonne, Daryl, and Negan & Maggie. Could Judith make an appearance in one of them?

🎬 Bigger Hollywood Roles?
Now that she’s 18, Cailey has the opportunity to take on more mature roles in films and TV shows. Given her talent, it wouldn’t be surprising if she became one of Hollywood’s next big stars.
