Sydney Mikayla talks playing Trina on "General Hospital", voice acting in the Netflix show "Kipo and The Wonderbeasts", future aspirations, and a nerve-racking audition for the books!                          

About Sydney Mikayla:

Mikayla stars as Trina Robinson on the award-winning series General Hospital, which is currently the longest-running daytime drama in production. As part of the new generation of teens in Port Charles, Trina has formed a tight bond with Josslyn Jacks and Cameron Webber as they navigate the ups and downs of life. She is a hard-working intern who has become close with former mobster Ava Jerome (played by Daytime icon Maura West) while working at her art gallery. Loyal viewers were excited to see Marcus Taggert (played by Réal Andrews) return to the show after a long absence, and were shocked by the revelation that he is Trina’s father.                         

She also is also bringing her talent to the world of voiceover. Mikayla can currently be heard in a lead role as Wolf in Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, an animated series that follows a young girl who has been thrust into an adventure on the surface of a post-apocalyptic Earth. Her character is the deuteragonist who works alongside Kipo and is described as “tough-as-nails.” The cast also includes Sterling K. Brown, Dee Bradley Baker, and Deon Cole to name just a few. The show is streaming now on Netflix. Mikayla will also be recurring as Olivia on the new Nickelodeon live action puppet comedy The Barbarian and The Troll. The show follows Evan, a bridge troll in search of adventure, and Brendar, a fierce female warrior, on a quest to defeat the evil demon who has imprisoned her brother.                     

Mikayla got her big break starring as Gabby Douglas in the Lifetime movie The Gabby Douglas Story. The movie chronicled the journey of Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas, the first African American ever to be named Individual All-Around Champion in artistic gymnastics at the Olympic Games. Mikayla’s moving performance earned her a Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a TV Movie.
