Like Gwen Stacy AKA Ghost-Spider

The Lodge (2017)

Like Jess

Descendants Franchise (2015-2021)

Like sometimes

The descendants The franchise spans Disney Channel original movies, shorts, animated specials and novels. Each medium has more parts of the overall story, giving the audience, especially the tweens the stories are aimed at, a more complete picture if they engage with all aspects of the story.

Liv & Maddie (2013-2017)

Like Love and Maddie Rooney

Although Cameron had a few professional roles on television before he was cast as the star of Love & MaddieThis is definitely her breakout role. Cameron plays both titular characters, twin sisters who couldn’t be more different. While Liv is an actor who spends most of her time on movie and TV sets, Maddie lives at home and plays basketball with her friends. Liv is as “girly” as a teenage girl can be and Maddie is much more of a tomboy. They can get on each other’s nerves, but they would also do anything for one another.

Cameron playing two very different roles, complete with a completely different voice for each character, shows just how immensely talented she is. She also recorded the theme song for the series, and her career effectively launched by Disney allowed her to release music as well. These dual roles will likely be some of Cameron’s most iconic in the same way that Lizzie McGuire is for Hilary Duff and Hannah Montana is for Miley Cyrus.

Like Amber Von Tusle

Agents of SHIELD (2018)

As Ruby Hale in 6 episodes

Agents of Shield may exist in the gray area of ​​the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but the beloved Marvel show ran for seven years before the MCU exploded into the multiverse. Cameron appeared as a villain in six episodes of the fifth season.

Cameron played Ruby Hale, a character created for the TV series instead of one from the pages of the comics. Ruby is a teenage girl who was engineered and trained to be the perfect weapon. Obsessed with Quake, Ruby takes drastic measures to become even more dangerous. Cameron’s performance as the character oscillates between quietly sociopathic and loudly unhinged.

It’s great to see Cameron in a role like this because it’s so far removed from anything she’s played. She also gets to do a few action scenes against Chloe Bennet which are fantastically done.

Schmigadon! (2021-2023)

Like Jennie Banks and Betsy McDonough

Schmigadon! is an AppleTV+ series that only lasted two seasons. Each season both homages and satirizes musicals from a specific era. While the first season focuses on the golden age of musicals from the 1940s and 1950s, the second season goes for the darker musicals of the 1960s and ’70s. The whole concept, however, begins like the classic Brigadoon, on which the title is based, with a couple stumbling upon a magical town where the residents live in a musical.

While the main couple stays the same in both seasons, the rest of the ensemble plays different characters in seasons 1 and 2, including Dove Cameron. The first season sees her as a character inspired by Ado Annie in Oklahoma! The second season sees her as a cabaret performer inspired specifically by Liza Minnelli’s take on Sally Bowles in Cabaret. The set-up of the series allows Cameron to play two very different roles and showcase her range.

She also gets to showcase her skills as a singer since the show is a musical. Dove Cameron also appeared alongside such stage veterans as Chenoweth (again), Aaron Tveit and Ariana DeBose. It really is a dream show to give the audience just an idea of ​​how talented Deaf Cameron Is.
