Between her various TV show stints, Victoria Pedretti has sprinkled in some film roles, most of which are also of a macabre nature. She had a minor role as Leslie "Lulu" Van Houten, a disciple of infamous cult leader Charles Manson, in Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood." 

She's also starred in a reboot of Steven Spielberg's "Amazing Stories" on Apple+, where she starred in the episode, "The Cellar" (and showed off her singing skills!) alongside Dylan O'Brien. Showrunner Eddy Kitsis told The Wrap, "We were obsessed with her on 'Hill House' and the benefit of working with [Spielberg's production company] Amblin is, 'Can you get this to Victoria?' — and they did. That scene where she's singing alone is, like, so magical. We would just watch that scene in editing and it was like — everything about the character, she just did in that one scene. It was amazing her talent."

In a particularly poignant twist of fate, she even landed a role alongside Elisabeth Moss in the biopic "Shirley," based on the life of Shirley Jackson, the author who wrote "The Haunting of Hill House." Pedretti's penchant for the supernaturally spooky has prompted many outlets to dub her the "New Scream Queen," and by all accounts, she's loved the journey so far. "I feel incredibly gifted and blessed to have the opportunity to do what I love," the actor told The New York Times. "I look at every experience as a learning experience."
