Anja Savcic has built a strong career that proves she can own any kind of role. From drama to comedy to science-fiction films, she has shown and proved that her acting range has no limits.

If you are wondering where to begin to truly see the variety she brings on screen, the answer is simple. There are five standout projects that capture her best work. Together, they show just how flexible Anja Savcic is as an actor and we're here to break it all down for you!


5 Anja Savcic movies and TV shows to watch

1] Loudermilk (2017 - 2020; TV Show):

Comedy can be tricky, especially when it falls into 'dark but still funny' territory, but Loudermilk gives Anja Savcic a space to show just how comfortable she is with the genre. The show follows Sam Loudermilk who is a recovering alcoholic with no filter on his mouth. The show also follows the messy and chaotic lives of the people around him.

Savcic plays Claire Wilkes, his roommate who is also fighting her own battles and is also someone who deals with her issues with addiction. What makes this performance special is that Claire is never just comic relief but she is messy, awkward, and sometimes brutally funny, but also layered with vulnerability.

The friction between Claire and Loudermilk keeps the show unpredictable, while Savcic's delivery brings an honest edge that makes you laugh and then think twice. For anyone curious about her ability in a comedic role, Loudermilk is where that skill shines the most.


2] Nancy Drew (2019 - 2023; TV Show):

The CW's Nancy Drew TV show is full of creepy twists and turns and ghostly secrets. However, Anja Savcic fits like a puzzle piece into that world as Odette Lamar. Who is Odette you might ask? Odette is an old and vengeful spirit who has been tied to nothing but betrayal, greed and revenge.

Savcic's version of Odette might be elegant but she's also unsettling, as she plays someone whose tragic life continues to haunt the present narrative. What works so well here is her ability to shift tone: one moment calm and regal, the next, cold detachment.

Even in a story already packed with mystery, she manages to stand out by giving Odette the kind of presence that feels meaningful. If Loudermilk shows her comedic timing, then Nancy Drew highlights her capacity to act out a much darker and supernatural role with ease.


3] Big Sky (2020 - 2023; TV Show):

In Big Sky, Anja Savcic plays a character named Scarlet Leyendecker which is a role that takes her right into the middle of crime as well as moral conflict. Scarlet's life here has been linked to a dangerous criminal, yet what's much more important is that she is also a mother trying to protect her child. That conflict is where Savcic's story starts off.

She makes Scarlet unpredictable, tender and terrifying without ever losing grip on the character. The show itself follows two women investigators chasing crimes in Montana, but Scarlet becomes one of the most complicated threads in the story.

Watching Anja Savcic in Big Sky is watching her prove she can carry intensity just as convincingly as humor or supernatural mystery.


4] Ms. Match (2023 - Film):

Not everything in Anja Savcic's filmography leans heavy. In Ms. Match, a romantic comedy made for TV, she gets to take the lead as Athena Carter, a writer chasing both career dreams and personal happiness.

This project may not have the polish of big studio productions, but it does give Savcic the spotlight she deserves. She carries the film with ease and Athena's story of dating misadventures and second chances is definitely a must watch.

It's a reminder that Anja Savcic can just as easily draw in an audience with warmth and fun. Ms. Match is proof of her ability to hold a project on her shoulders while keeping the tone light and enjoyable.


5] Incontrol (2018 - Film):

Before many of her more visible TV projects, Anja Savcic stepped into the world of indie science fiction with Incontrol. The story is about a group of students who find a device that lets them live through other people's eyes.

Savcic's character Samantha soon becomes addicted to this new found God like power and she ends up making choices that blur the line between what's real and what isn't i.e., fascination and obsession.

What makes her role so interesting here is the way she balances the two sides. Samantha is both sympathetic and also the one causing trouble which makes you want to root for her but also makes you fear her.

In this experimental film, Savcic still manages to leave a strong impression. It's a performance that shows her willingness to take risks early on and lean into the mind of a morally gray character.


Across comedy, drama, horror, and even romance, Anja Savcic has shown that she can move between genres without losing her impact. These five projects: Loudermilk, Nancy Drew, Big Sky, Ms. Match, and Incontrol offer a perfect map of her career so far and showcase her ability to surprise audiences every time.

Whether she’s making you laugh, unsettling you, or pulling you into a morally complex character, Savcic’s range is clear. If her past roles are any hint, she is only just beginning to carve out a lasting space in both television and film.
