Gemma Massot is a Cuban-English actress and filmmaker. Gemma was born into the film industry where her father wrote and directed several films including the Led Zeppelin concert film, The Song Remains the Same, and the Cannes Palme d'Or nominated short film, Reflections on Love.

At a young age, Gemma wrote, produced, and starred (and won accolades!) in a one woman show called Chasing Shadows, about young love in the midst of the IRA troubles. Before University, Gemma worked as Gabriel Byrne’s personal assistant and had the privilege and honor of watching and learning from some of the world’s greats such as Gabriel, himself, Sir Richard Harris, Samantha Morton, and Julia Ormond.

Gemma earned a BA from The American Academy of Dramatic Arts (AADA) in New York and moved to Los Angeles following her repertory year at AADA. In LA, Gemma quickly became a working actor, guest starring in TV shows such as The Mentalist, Revenge, and the 90210 reboot. She also lent her creative input to friends such as Taika Waititi on his award winning feature, Boy, and associate produced Tribeca bound features - The Ticket and Junction 48.

Gemma is repped by Authentic Management and divides her time between NYC and LA. Her recent credits include The Looming Tower and indie features such as Unintended, Little Faith, and Liberati: A Call to Spy. Gemma is currently developing a feature about life in 1950s Cuba.
