Pedretti burst onto the scene with her dual role as Nell Crain (adult and young) in Mike Flanagan’s Netflix horror series “The Haunting of Hill House” (2018).

She also appeared in Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” (2019) as Leslie Van Houten.

Pedretti has continued to take on diverse roles in both film and television, including the biographical drama “Shirley” (2024). Known for her intense preparation and ability to convey deep vulnerability on screen, she has built a devoted fanbase and critical reputation that continues to grow. Her consistent work in high-profile productions has contributed to an estimated net worth of $4 million by 2026.
