Tara Thaller (; born 31 March, 1998) is a Croatian actress best known for her role in HBO's TV series ''Uspjeh'' (Success). She adopted the surname Thaller, derived from her great-grandmother's maiden name, informally using it on social media platforms. She formally changed her last name following her debut in a movie role.[1]
Tara Filipović was born in Zagreb, Croatia, and was raised alongside two siblings.[2] [3] She speaks English, some German and French and she plays the piano. She has trained in skiing, swimming and horseback riding.[4]
In 2017 she finished high school and unsuccessfully attempted to enroll in the Academy of Dramatic Art in Zagreb. While preparing for the following year's entrance exam, she briefly worked in a fast-food chain restaurant. However, she resigned from her position after securing the lead role in the HBO TV series, "Uspjeh" (Success).
Following several supporting roles primarily in Croatian films and TV series, Thaller achieved recognition with the role of Blanka in HBO's TV series "Uspjeh" (Success), broadcast in 2019. This marked a significant turning point in her career. Subsequently, she secured a contract for the Swiss film titled "The Saint of the Impossible", filmed in New York during 2019. This opportunity further extended her international career, which had commenced with a minor role in the film "Ibiza" the previous year.
Although her career is currently focused on big screen and TV, she is very interested in theatre roles.[5]
In 2018 Thaller appeared as a contestant in a Croatian quiz-show Volim Hrvatsku, and in spring 2019 she won the Croatian version of BBC's singing show Just the Two of Us in pair with Croatian singer Dino Jelusić.
