In The Walking Dead they would put dirt on me. They put extensions on me, were fixing my hair, and let me wear a princess dress, it was really fun to do. It was a dream."[7]

Sharbino played Abby Beam in the 2016 faith based film Miracles From Heaven, alongside Queen Latifah and Jennifer Garner.[8][9] The movie was shot in Atlanta in the summer of 2015 and Sharbino had her 13th birthday on set.[8]
