With those three projects, plus her role in Halt and Catch Fire, which finished its fourth and final season in October, Newton has been Caleb Landry Jones–level busy. That same month, her death prompted the onscreen vengeance of her movie-mom Frances McDormand in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. By November, she was the nerdy, bespectacled straight- edge rolling her eyes at Saoirse Ronan in Lady Bird. In February, Newton was Reese Witherspoon’s rebellious daughter on Big Little Lies, sneaking around on her laptop, scheming to sell her virginity online. But while playing a trio of teen girls across some of the year’s best offerings, Newton has also showed us each girl’s big heart.
