Career

First steps

Ruby debuted as an actress both in movies and television at aged 14 in 2010. She was cast for a minor role as the young Rebecca in the science-fiction drama movie “Womb,” starring the English actor, Matthew Smith, and French actress, Eva Green who played the adult Rebecca – it had the title “Clone” in its UK DVD release. Being cast for the major role as Sophie Kellermann in the real-time crime series, “13 Hours: Race against Time,” also known as “Alone against Time” was a big break for her.

Its real-time structure was similar to that of American TV series, “24,” except that in the German series, the story revolved around a group of students who would stop the bad guys from accomplishing their evil plan. It ran for two seasons from 2010 to 2012 with 26 episodes, and this made her well known to the public. A movie version of the TV series was made and released in October of 2016 in German theaters. The main characters in the movie were played by the same actors in the series, except for the role of Sophie, which was played by Stephanie Amarell instead of Ruby.
