Artistry and media reception

[edit]

Musical and acting styles

[edit]

V magazine writer Dylan Kelly called Steinfeld an "artist of ambidexterity, showcasing supremacy across an impressive repertoire of on-screen roles in film and television", and said "her musical prowess is one of melodic self-growth and good-natured, lyrical wisdom".[131]

Steinfeld said in a 2016 interview, "With [my] music, I feel like I get to be myself, tell my own story, and take my life experiences and not put them into another story but into my own words."[132] She went on to say that "music is such a big influence in [her] acting" and that the two "entwine".[132] Variety writer Natalie Weiner stated that Steinfeld has long been injecting "some vague notion of female empowerment [...] into her music.[133] Self-love is a common theme Steinfeld has looked at within her music.[134]

Steinfeld has stated that she hopes to be remembered as "an artist that truly cared about the art".[135] She went on to note the "differences between working on a film set and in a studio are multiple", and adding that "she loves the freedom of making music".[135]

There's something so freeing about going into a studio. It doesn't matter what time of day it is, doesn't matter what you're wearing or whether you're wearing make-up or not. You go into a room with people that you love and you feel comfortable with, and can be yourself around and be vulnerable and open up and talk about experiences. Magic happens in those moments.[135]

Influences

[edit]

Steinfeld has cited Madonna and Rihanna as her biggest musical influences.[136] Other artists Steinfeld has cited as influences include Britney Spears, Tori Kelly, Selena Gomez, Bruno Mars and Justin Timberlake.[136][81][137] Steinfeld noted their "strength, courage and their ability to go out [...] and express themselves".[81] She has also said that she grew up listening to Boyz II Men and Luther Vandross due to her mother's love for them.[132]

Other work

[edit]

Endorsements

[edit]

Outside of her projects in the acting and music industry, Steinfeld has embarked on other ventures.[138] She has been involved in marketing initiatives throughout her career and endorsed numerous brands including Prada,[139] Balmain,[140] and Louis Vuitton.[141] In 2017, Steinfeld began to represent Reef Footwear[142] and MISSION Activewear.[143] In 2018, her line of eyewear called Privé Revaux was launched.[144] In 2022, Steinfeld released "Coast" which coincided with the promotion of her newest role as a brand ambassador for CORE Hydration, promoting the company's "Find Your Core" campaign.[114][145][146]

Philanthropy

[edit]

Steinfeld endorsed a variety of charities, including numerous organizations with a focus on improving children's lives.[147] The list of charities endorsed by her includes: "What's Your Mission?", a charitable initiative with mission apparel and an accessories brand, "No Kid Hungry",[148] a charity working to eradicate child hunger in the United States, WE Movement, The Ryan Seacrest Foundation, Make-A-Wish Foundation,[149] and others. On the set of True Grit, Steinfeld created a "swear jar"; every time someone uttered the word "fuck", Steinfeld would collect $5 from the perpetrator, while other vulgarities were worth a dollar. As a trade-off, she had to pay up 50 cents if she said "like". She stated she "matched it and donated it all to an Alzheimer's foundation".[150]

Steinfeld has made several public appearances during charity events, such as the Breast Cancer Foundation's 2014 Hot Pink Party,[151] the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball 2015 tour,[152] and WE Day 2019 in California.[153] In 2016, Steinfeld participated in singing "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" with fellow singers and celebrities.

Hailee Puring Steinfeld (born December 11, 1996) is an American actress and voice actress, singer, and songwriter of Ashkenazi Jewish, Filipino, and African American descent who first gained widespread recognition for her breakout role as the determined orphan Mattie Ross in the Coen brothers' Western remake True Grit (2010). At just 14 years old, her performance earned her a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, as well as nominations for a BAFTA and a Screen Actors Guild Award, marking her as one of the youngest actors ever nominated in that category. Born in Tarzana, Los Angeles, California, to interior designer Cheri Domasin and fitness trainer Peter Steinfeld, she grew up in a family with diverse heritage, including Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry on her father's side and Filipino and African American roots through her maternal grandfather. Steinfeld began her career as a child model and actress, appearing in commercials and small TV roles on shows like Back to You (2007) and Sons of Tucson (2010) before her True Grit debut. She graduated from high school in 2015 and continued building her acting resume with lead roles in films such as the romantic adaptation Romeo & Juliet (2013), the sci-fi epic Ender's Game (2013), the musical comedy Pitch Perfect 2 (2015), and the coming-of-age dramedy The Edge of Seventeen (2016), the latter earning her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy. Transitioning into voice acting and franchise work, Steinfeld voiced Spider-Gwen in the animated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) and its sequels, including Across the Spider-Verse (2023), Vi in the Netflix animated series Arcane (2021–2024), while also starring as the titular poet in the Apple TV+ series Dickinson (2019–2021) and as Kate Bishop in the Marvel Cinematic Universe miniseries Hawkeye (2021). Her filmography expanded into action and horror with roles in Bumblebee (2018) and the 2025 vampire thriller Sinners, directed by Ryan Coogler, where she played the multiracial character Mary opposite Michael B. Jordan; the role deepened her personal connection to her heritage through research into her family's history. Parallel to her acting, Steinfeld launched a music career in 2015 after signing with Republic Records, releasing her debut EP Haiz that year, which featured the single "Love Myself" peaking at No. 20 on the Billboard Hot 100. She followed with the EP Half Written Story (2020) and singles like "Starving" (2016) with Grey and Zedd, which reached No. 12 on the chart, blending pop and electronic styles in collaborations with artists such as Zedd and Niall Horan.

She portrayed Emily Junk, a freshman member of the Barden Bellas a cappella group, in the musical comedy Pitch Perfect 2, directed by Elizabeth Banks, which grossed over $285 million worldwide. She also starred as Megan Walsh, a teenage assassin attempting a normal high school life, in the action-comedy Barely Lethal, alongside Jessica Alba. Additionally, Steinfeld played Eliza, a young woman involved in New York City's 1980s punk scene, in the drama Ten Thousand Saints. That same year marked Steinfeld's entry into music as a recording artist. She released her debut single "Love Myself" in August 2015 through Republic Records, which peaked at number 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned platinum certification from the RIAA. The track's empowering lyrics and pop production helped establish her as an emerging singer. In November 2015, she followed with her self-titled debut extended play HAIZ, featuring four tracks including "Love Myself" and "Rock Bottom," which debuted at number 59 on the Billboard 200. Steinfeld's acting momentum continued in 2016 with her critically acclaimed performance as Nadine Franklin, a sarcastic high schooler grappling with family and social issues, in the coming-of-age comedy-drama The Edge of Seventeen, directed by Kelly Fremon Craig. The role earned her a nomination for Best Actress – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy at the 74th Golden Globe Awards. She also appeared as Cate, the daughter of a fugitive, in the action-thriller Term Life. On the music front, Steinfeld collaborated with electronic duo Grey and producer Zedd on the single "Starving," released in July 2016, which became her biggest hit to date, reaching number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and achieving double platinum status. By 2017, Steinfeld balanced both fields prominently. She reprised her role as Emily Junk, now a senior leader of the Barden Bellas, in Pitch Perfect 3, the final installment of the franchise, which emphasized her character's growth amid international competitions. In animation, she voiced Mary, a young donkey's owner, in the family film The Star. Musically, she released the single "Most Girls" in May 2017, peaking at number 58 on the Billboard Hot 100 and celebrating female empowerment through its versatile portrayal of women's experiences. Later that year, she teamed with DJ Alesso, country duo Florida Georgia Line, and producer watt for "Let Me Go," which charted at number 40 on the Hot 100 and blended pop, EDM, and country elements. In 2018, Steinfeld took on more prominent leading roles. She starred as Charlie Watson, a grieving teenager who befriends the Autobot Bumblebee, in the Transformers spin-off Bumblebee, directed by Travis Knight, which received praise for her emotional depth and helped the film earn an 91% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. She also voiced Spider-Gwen, a dimension-hopping superhero, in the animated blockbuster Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, contributing to its Academy Award win for Best Animated Feature. For the Bumblebee soundtrack, Steinfeld recorded the original song "Back to Life".

2019–present: Streaming series and current projects

In late 2018, Steinfeld was cast as the lead in the Apple TV+ comedy-drama series Dickinson, portraying a fictionalized version of poet Emily Dickinson across three seasons from 2019 to 2021. The show, created by Alena Smith, blended historical elements with modern sensibilities to explore themes of gender, family, and artistic ambition, earning praise for Steinfeld's nuanced performance that captured the poet's rebellious spirit and emotional depth. Steinfeld expanded her presence in streaming with her Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in the 2021 Disney+ miniseries Hawkeye, where she played Kate Bishop, a skilled young archer who becomes the superhero Hawkeye. Directed by Rhys Thomas and others, the series paired her with Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton, focusing on mentorship and action amid a New York City conspiracy, and her portrayal was lauded for bringing youthful energy and authenticity to the role. She reprised Kate Bishop in a brief live-action cameo in the 2023 film The Marvels, which later streamed on Disney+, and voiced alternate versions of the character in the animated anthology What If...? Season 3 on Disney+ in 2024, including a standout episode set in 1872. From 2021 to 2024, Steinfeld voiced Vi, a tough enforcer from the undercity of Zaun, in the Netflix animated series Arcane, an adaptation of the League of Legends universe created by Christian Linke and Alex Yee. The series, spanning two seasons, delved into themes of class divide, family, and technological conflict between the cities of Piltover and Zaun, with Steinfeld's vocal performance highlighting Vi's fierce loyalty and vulnerability; it received widespread acclaim, including multiple Emmy Awards for its animation and storytelling. Steinfeld continued voicing Spider-Gwen in the animated film Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023), earning praise for her performance, including a win for Best Voice-Over Performance at the 2024 Astra Film Awards, which became available on Netflix, contributing to its multiverse-spanning narrative of teen heroism and identity. She is set to reprise the role in the upcoming Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, slated for theatrical release on June 18, 2027, with streaming to follow on Netflix. In 2025, Steinfeld starred as Mary in the horror-thriller film Sinners, directed by Ryan Coogler and co-starring Michael B. Jordan, which premiered in theaters and later streamed on Max; the project incorporated musical elements and Southern Gothic themes of redemption and supernatural evil. That same year, she voiced a zombie variant of Kate Bishop in the Disney+ animated miniseries Marvel Zombies, the first TV-MA rated Marvel Animation project, featuring an ensemble of undead heroes fighting for survival in a post-apocalyptic world. Steinfeld continued her music career alongside acting, releasing the EP Half Written Story in May 2020, which included singles "Wrong Direction" and "Coast". She issued the single "SunKissing" in 2023 and returned in 2025 with "Dangerous", an original song co-written for the Sinners soundtrack that complemented the film's 1930s Southern Gothic atmosphere.

Artistry and media reception

Musical and acting styles

Hailee Steinfeld's music is primarily rooted in pop, encompassing subgenres such as dance-pop, teen pop, and synth-pop, often featuring catchy hooks and production-driven arrangements designed for mainstream radio play. Her debut EP Haiz (2015) showcased a blend of pop-rock, R&B, and EDM elements, with tracks like "Love Myself" emphasizing self-empowerment and youthful energy through upbeat rhythms and electro-infused sounds. Later works, such as the EP Half Written Story (2020), evolved toward a more mature synth-pop and R&B-infused style, exploring themes of heartbreak, resilience, and self-care with sympathetic lyrics and engaging melodies that draw from personal experiences. Singles like "SunKissing" (2023) and "Dangerous" (2025), the latter an uptempo pop anthem with pulsating rhythms co-written for the Sinners soundtrack, continue this trajectory, delivering vibey, empowering pop that blends emotional depth with commercial appeal. Steinfeld's influences, including Michael Jackson's timeless pop innovation, Ed Sheeran's raw lyricism, and Drake's studio experimentation, contribute to her eclectic sound that balances commercial appeal with emotional depth. In her acting career, Steinfeld employs a methodical process that emphasizes emotional authenticity and collaboration, often beginning with in-depth discussions with directors to unpack character motivations and life experiences. Her breakthrough role as Mattie Ross in True Grit (2010) highlighted an exceedingly accomplished style, where she held her own against seasoned performers like Jeff Bridges through precise dialogue delivery and a natural command of period-specific rhythm, honed by studying the original film while avoiding direct imitation. In The Edge of Seventeen (2016), Steinfeld channeled a generation-defining portrayal of teenage vulnerability, infusing the character Nadine with an "old soul" perspective via subtle physicality informed by her dance background, treating movements like choreography to convey inner turmoil. More recent roles, such as in Sinners (2025), demonstrate her ability to confront personal fears head-on, using improvisation and close rapport with co-stars to deliver complex scenes blending grief, intimacy, and violence with raw emotional depth. This approach, marked by a musical quality in her speech patterns, allows seamless transitions between dramatic intensity and lighter fare, underscoring her versatility across genres.

Influences

Steinfeld's musical influences draw from a diverse range of genres, shaped by her family's tastes and personal discoveries. Growing up in Los Angeles, she was exposed to classic rock through her father, including The Eagles' Hotel California (1976), which evokes vivid family memories for her, and Led Zeppelin's works. Her mother introduced R&B artists like Boyz II Men, whose album Evolution (1997) inspired Steinfeld to appreciate the intricate artistry of vocal harmonies. Her brother's interest in rap and hip-hop also influenced her, with Drake's Views (2016) serving as a reference for innovative production during her studio sessions. Other key albums that profoundly impacted Steinfeld include Michael Jackson's This Is It (2009), which fueled her early fandom and song-listing habits; Ed Sheeran's debut + (2011), whose songwriting she aspires to emulate; and Annie Lennox's influence via Eurythmics' "No More I Love You's" (1985 cover), which shaped the self-empowerment theme in her 2020 single "I Love You's." She has also cited Taylor Swift as a model for balancing music and acting careers, following her feature in Swift's "Bad Blood" video (2015). Additional contemporary inspirations include Anderson .Paak's rhythmic style on her track "Coast" (2022) and The Smiths' sound, which informed her character development in Bumblebee (2018). In her acting, Steinfeld integrates music as a core influence, creating character-specific playlists to evoke emotions and moods during preparation—for instance, using tracks to ground herself on set or enhance scene authenticity. Her entry into acting at age eight was sparked by watching her cousin in a TV commercial, making the profession feel attainable. Early professional experiences, such as collaborating with Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon in True Grit (2010), taught her to approach dialogue conversationally and build confidence through preparation and persistence, lessons reinforced by her parents' emphasis on hard work. Her dance background further informs physical performances, adding personal flair to roles like climbing in True Grit.

Media reception

Steinfeld's acting has generally received critical acclaim, particularly for her early breakthrough in True Grit (2010), where critics praised her poised and authoritative performance, earning her an Academy Award nomination. Her role in The Edge of Seventeen (2016) was lauded for capturing teenage angst with authenticity, contributing to a Golden Globe nomination. She has also been praised for her voice acting, voicing Gwen Stacy in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) and its sequel Across the Spider-Verse (2023), where her performance earned a win for Best Voice-Over Performance at the 2024 Astra Film Awards and contributed to the film's 95% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Additionally, her portrayal of Vi in the Netflix series Arcane (2021–2024) was highlighted for capturing the character's fierce loyalty and vulnerability, supporting the series' widespread acclaim and 100% Rotten Tomatoes score. Her role as Kate Bishop in Hawkeye (2021) received particular praise for bringing youthful energy and authenticity to the character, earning nominations including Best Hero at the MTV Movie & TV Awards and contributing to the series' 89% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Recent projects like Sinners (2025) have been positively received for her versatility in dramatic roles. Her music career has elicited mixed responses from critics. While her vocals and emotional delivery are often commended, releases like the EP Haiz (2015) and Half Written Story (2020) have been critiqued for generic production and lack of distinctiveness despite catchy pop elements. The 2025 single "Dangerous" has been noted for its energetic pop sound, though some reviews question her prioritization of acting over music.

Philanthropy

Steinfeld has been actively involved in philanthropy since her early career, focusing primarily on children's health, education, and disaster relief efforts. She has supported organizations addressing childhood hunger, cancer research, and pediatric care, often using her platform as an actress and singer to raise awareness and funds through events, campaigns, and social media promotions. In 2011, Steinfeld was honored by the young Hollywood community for her work with Share Our Strength, a nonprofit dedicated to ending childhood hunger in the United States, where she contributed to awareness campaigns providing meals to underprivileged children. She later aligned with the No Kid Hungry campaign, amplifying efforts to combat food insecurity among youth. Steinfeld has shown consistent support for cancer-related causes. In 2014, she attended the Breast Cancer Research Foundation's Hot Pink Party, an event that raised $5 million for research into breast cancer prevention and treatment. That same year, she participated in the Entertainment Industry Foundation's Stand Up to Cancer telethon, joining Hollywood figures to fund innovative cancer research. Her involvement extends to Music Beats Cancer, a nonprofit aiding families affected by pediatric cancer, through ongoing endorsements. For children's health initiatives, Steinfeld became a brand ambassador for MISSION in 2017, launching the "What's Your Mission?" campaign featuring limited-edition T-shirts, with $5 from each sale benefiting Children's Hospital Los Angeles to support pediatric medical care. She has also supported St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, participating in events to advance treatments for childhood diseases. Steinfeld's commitment to global child welfare is evident in her work with UNICEF. In 2013, she appeared in public service announcements urging donations for Typhoon Haiyan relief in the Philippines, aiding over five million affected children. In 2020, she reunited with her Pitch Perfect castmates for a virtual performance of Beyoncé's "Love on Top," with proceeds directed to UNICEF's efforts for children impacted by the Beirut port explosion and the COVID-19 pandemic. More recently, in January 2025, amid Los Angeles wildfires, Steinfeld leveraged her Instagram and "Beau Society" newsletter platform to share donation resources for wildfire victims and displaced animals, promoting links to California Fire Relief and Canine Rescue Club initiatives. Through these efforts, she continues to prioritize humanitarian causes affecting vulnerable populations.

Steinfeld's dating history includes a relationship with Instagram star Cameron Smoller from 2016 to 2017. She later dated singer Niall Horan from late 2017 to 2018.

On January 11, 2026, Steinfeld missed her husband Josh Allen's Buffalo Bills wild-card playoff game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Jacksonville, Florida, to serve as a presenter alongside Ayo Edebiri at the 83rd Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles, celebrating her role in 'Sinners', where she marked her first public display of her baby bump on the red carpet in a baby pink long-sleeved gown featuring top-to-bottom silver embellishments, amid her pregnancy with their first child. In a subsequent Instagram post, she referred to her unborn child as her "newest plus one." Steinfeld maintains a relatively private personal life, emphasizing the importance of family and her multicultural background in her artistic choices. Her father is Jewish and her mother was raised Christian, and Steinfeld has stated that her family "celebrate it all."
