Eventually, Marissa got interested in acting more and more and decided to pursue it full-time. She continued to perform in local productions throughout middle and high school.
During her middle and high school days, she performed in many stage musicals and some of them were local productions such as ‘Little Shop of Horrors,’ ‘Peter Pan,’ and ‘Mary Poppins.’

When Marissa Bode was just 11 years old, she met with a car accident which resulted in her being paralyzed from the waist down. However, her disability never stopped her from pursuing her passion for acting.
In 2019, she was cast in the American short film titled ‘No Roles Written’ in which she played the character of Kalliope.
She began her acting program at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and she gave auditions for the American epic musical fantasy film titled ‘Wicked’ a year after graduating college.
In 2021, Marissa directed and produced an American short film titled ‘You’re Adorable’ which was also accepted to the 2021 Wisconsin Film Festival.

Marrisa played the character of Nessarose in the film ‘Wicked.’
Marissa performed her own stunts in the film ‘Wicked’ which was one of her favourite parts. Sharing her experience of the same, she was quoted saying in an interview that
I loved being in the air. They put me in the harness and started out really slow and I was like, ‘Please go faster. This is so fun.”
She was the first actress living with a disability to be cast and play her character in the film adaptation of ‘Wicked’ on the big screen because anyone who has ever played her character in the plays has been able-bodied. She was quoted saying in an interview that
Not even just for myself, but that’s going to mean so much to other little girls and boys in wheelchairs and to have that representation for them to see, and that authenticity.”
