In recent years, Netflix has been a great platform for up-and-coming acting talent to make a name for themselves.

The latest thriller to land on the streamer, Devil in Ohio, is another prime example as alongside some established cast members, the series also sees some new faces arrive on the scene.

One of the most notable cast members in Devil in Ohio is Xaria Dotson who plays Jules, the daughter of lead character Suzanne, but what do we know about the actress – from her age and Instagram to previous roles?

Devil in Ohio release date and plot preview

Devil in Ohio crawled onto Netflix on Friday, September 2, 2022.

Starring Emily Deschanel and Madeleine Arthur, the series tells the story of psychiatrist Dr Suzanne Mathis who meets a young woman named Mae who arrived at the hospital with a gnarly wound on her back.

After failing to find a foster home for Mae, Suzanne agrees to look after the girl herself, but all is not as it seems with Mae and it quickly becomes clear that she was once part of a satanic cult.

Suzanne’s decision to welcome Mae into her home not only threatens to turn her family’s lives upside down but also puts them in potentially grave danger.
