Life and career

Estevez was born on December 4, 2007 in Los Angeles, California, to Samantha and Anthony Estevez. She was three years old when she booked her first national commercial.[2]

Estevez's first film role was playing Ashley in the 2013 short film The Magic Bracelet, produced for the Make a Film Foundation.[2][3] Later she appeared in the 2013 film And Then There Was You,[2] and in the 2015 Nickelodeon television film The Massively Mixed-Up Middle School Mystery.

In 2015 she starred in Daddy's Home playing Megan, a role she reprised for the film's 2017 sequel Daddy's Home 2. The Hartford Courant noted of her appearance in Daddy's Home that "it has to be said that the child actors playing the kids, Megan (Scarlett Estevez) and Dylan (Owen Vaccaro) actually give real comic performances",[4] and The Austin Chronicle review of Daddy's Home 2 singled out Estevez among the child actors in the film, noting that "while the children are mainly used as pawns in the larger power struggle, there are a couple of scenes in which Estevez has a chance to deliver some lines that are actually funny".[5]

In March 2015 she was cast as Trixie Espinoza in the Fox television series Lucifer,[6] a role she has played for four seasons. In June 2019, it was confirmed that Estevez would continue to perform in the fifth season of Lucifer on Netflix, which was expected at the time to be the final season.[7] Also in 2019, she was cast in the fourth season of the Disney Channel television comedy series Bunk'd, playing the role of Gwen,[8] a character "who has spent her entire life living off the grid".[9] In June 2020, it was confirmed that Estevez would continue to perform in a sixth and final season of Lucifer on Netflix.[10]
