Rosanne Santos Mulholland (born December 31, 1980) is a Brazilian television and film actress. She played the lead role, Helena, in the telenovela Carrosel.

Since the 2006 short film 14 Bis, she professionally began using her actual surname, Mulholland, having been previously credited as Rosanne Holland, as this stage name is easier to spell.

Carlos Reichenbach, who directed the 2007 film Falsa Loura said the following about Rosanne Mulholland: “This girl is like a volcano, wonderful; she can play any role, she has freshness and an universal face”.

She starred the film Falsa Loura, and during the release of the film, several celebrity websites called her the "Brazilian cinema's new sweetheart".

Rosanne Mulholland was born in Brasília, on December 31, 1980, the eldest daughter of Timothy Mulholland, former dean of the Universidade de Brasília, and Lurdisceia Santos. She lived with her Baptist Church missionary grandparents until she was 13 years old.

She started her career as a theater actress when she was 12 years old and later she starred several college and shopping mall television advertisements, because of that Brasília locals gave her the nickname ad girl. At the same time period she met fellow Brasília José Eduardo Belmonte, who later hired her when she moved to Rio de Janeiro.

Her cinema debut was the 2002 short film Dez Dias Felizes, written by Belmonte, followed by Araguaya - Conspiração do Silêncio, a film recorded while she was studying Psychology at the Centro Universitário de Brasília (UniCEUB). She participated in the A Concepção film, by Belmonte, Rio de Janeiro, then returned to Brasília, living two months in her home city. In 2004, she moved to Leblon neighborhood, in Rio de Janeiro, to earn a Psychology major at Gestalt and to work as an actress. She failed to receive a Psychology degree, starred a few television advertisements and participated in two plays, Amor com Amor se Paga and A Glória de Nelson. She graduated at Rede Globo's Actor's Workshop, and took theater classes with Daniel Herz at Casa de Cultura Laura Alvin until she was chosen to star in the A Concepção film.
