About Grace Dove

Born 1988. Grace Dove is a Canadian actor, film actor and film director.

Early life and education Dove was born on July 25, 1991, and is Secwepemc from the Canim Lake Indian Band in the Cariboo region of British Columbia. She was raised in Prince George, British Columbia, where she attended Salmon Valley Elementary School and Kelly Road Secondary School. Her father was a filmmaker who took her on visits to Hollywood when she was a child. After graduation from high school, she moved to Vancouver to study acting at Vancouver Film School.

Career At age ten, she landed a part as on-air correspondent of the Prince George TV children's show Splatterday. Dove said she went on many auditions after acting school before she landed the part of Hugh Glass's unnamed Pawnee wife. The Revenant's director Alejandro González Iñárritu did not audition her 'in the normal way' but "instead had some questions and a process that dug into who I was." she said. After she got the part, playing an emotionally demanding role opposite Leonardo DiCaprio, she said she "had to go in there extremely open without any expectations. Just like the audition process and even the filming process, I didn't know what exactly I was getting into. I prepared myself physically, emotionally and spiritually to be as open as possible so I could take direction, feed off my surroundings, and feed off my relationship with Leonardo within the scene. Obviously it's a period piece and so I was trying to connect to a layer of my ancestry as well."

In 2025, Dove appeared on The Amazing Race Canada 11 with her brother, Joe Syme. They placed runner-up after 10 legs.
