In 2017, she was recently seen in a trio of actions films: Vin Diesel’s XXX: The Return of Xander Cage, the third installment in the extreme-spy franchise; opposite Milla Jovovich and Ali Larter, in Resident Evil; Final Chapter; and in John Wick: Chapter Two, alongside Keanu Reeves, Common and Ian McShane, directed by Chad Stahelski and written by Derek Kolstad. She was also seen in Universal’s Pitch Perfect 3.
On August 10th , she can be seen in the Warner Bros. action film, The Meg, based on Steve Alten’s 1997 novel “Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror.” The Meg is centered on an international underwater observation program led by Chinese scientists that comes under attack by an unknown danger with its deep-sea submersible disabled and trapped at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.
Rose’s additional acting credits include the indie film, Around the Block, in which she starred alongside Christina Ricci, debuted at the Toronto Film Festival in September 2013. Ruby also appears in Sheep’n’Wolves, an animated feature, which tells the story of a magical land where a flock of sheep find their carefree days interrupted by a pack of wolves who move to a nearby ravine.
In 2015 Rose also wrote, produced, and starred in the short film Break Free, a tribute to gender fluidity that became a viral hit, garnering more than 25 million views on YouTube.
A multi-hyphenate, Rose’s talent also extends across fashion and music. In 2016, she became the face of Urban Decay Cosmetics and in 2017 became the face of Swarovski jewelry and Nike.
Rose is a fervent supporter of many charities including the causes closest to her heart such as Anti Bullying, Women and Gay Rights, Animal Welfare and Youth Mental Health. Rose was most recently awarded with the Stephen F. Kolzak Award at the 2016 GLAAD Media Awards, which is presented to an LGBT media professional who has made a significant difference in promoting equality and acceptance.
