From youth theatre to the screen

Mia Tharia is a British actor whose early screen work spans independent film and television. Before appearing on screen, she developed her interest in performance through youth theatre in Brixton.

In Ariane Labed’s feature debut September Says, Tharia plays July, a teenager whose relationship with her older sister is at the centre of the story. The film brought her to the Cannes Film Festival.

Her television work includes The Listeners, directed by Janicza Bravo. Moving between the film and the series gave her early experience in different kinds of screen storytelling.

In Taika Waititi’s Klara and the Sun (2026), she plays Josie, a young person whose family brings home Klara, an artificial companion played by Jenna Ortega. Tharia has discussed Josie’s intelligence and illness when describing the role.
