Child Actor is an American indie pop duo consisting of Max Heath and Natalie Plaza.
Child Actor was formed by cousins Max Heath and Sedgie Ogilvy. They released the Partner EP in February 2012 and the Window EP in July 2012.
Their first album, Victory, was released on Fake Four Inc. on October 16, 2012. Don Yates of KEXP-FM described the album as "an impressive set of maximalist, R&B-tinged electro-pop with a huge, lush sound featuring walls of glittering synths, hip hop-influenced rhythms, chopped samples, wispy vocals and sugary pop melodies." Alyce Currier of Earmilk said, "With more emotional staying power than a lot of music caught up in today's rapid release cycle, I think this one is a keeper."
Ogilvy left Child Actor in December 2012 with Natalie Plaza taking her place.
Child Actor released their sophomore album, Never Die, in September 2014.
