7 Best Olivia Cooke Movies

By Vlad Zakh · January 6, 2026

Olivia Cooke has moved between blockbuster spectacle and small, intense character work, rarely playing the obvious version of a role. Sound of Metal rebuilds a drummer’s identity after hearing loss, Little Fish races a couple to hold onto memories as a pandemic erases them, Ouija: Origin of Evil invites a malevolent spirit into a widow’s home, and Ready Player One enters a virtual treasure hunt. Thoroughbreds, Me and Earl and the Dying Girl and The Signal round out the list.
