She has played the role of a Succubus character in one film, that being Knights of Badassdom.
Personal life
Levieva, a Russian Jew,[1][2] was born in Leningrad, Russian SFSR, Soviet Union (now Saint Petersburg, Russian Federation). At the age of three, she began the rigorous training program of a competitive rhythmic gymnast.[1] When she was 11, Levieva's mother moved her and her twin brother to Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn in New York City.[1] Levieva continued to train for a few more years after emigrating to the United States and achieved success regionally but did not compete at the U.S. Championships – she did not have U.S. citizenship at the time because the family had arrived illegally.[3][4] She attended high school in Secaucus, New Jersey. Levieva majored in economics at New York University and worked as a fashion buyer.[1] Her continuing interest in acting led her to be accepted into the Meisner Training Program at the William Esper Studio.

Levieva made a guest appearance on Law & Order: Trial by Jury in 2005. In 2006, she starred in the Fox series, Vanished. Her feature film credits include The Invisible, the independent film Billy's Choice, and Noise starring Tim Robbins, Bridget Moynahan and William Hurt.
In 2005, New York Magazine featured her as one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in New York.[5]
In 2009, Levieva played Lisa P. in the comedy Adventureland. The same year, she made an appearance in the NBC drama Kings (in the episode "First Night") and starred in the play The Retributionists.[2] She also stars in HBO's comedy-drama series How to Make it in America. In 2011 she appears on the thriller film The Lincoln Lawyer, with Matthew McConaughey. Her other film credits include The Stand Up, The Knights of Badassdom, For Ellen and Loft.
In 2011, Levieva joined the ABC drama series Revenge in the recurring role of the original Emily Thorne, who agreed to switch identities with Amanda Clarke (Emily VanCamp).[6] In 2012, it was announced she would join the second season of HBO's Luck in the recurring role of Sarah Israel. However, the series was canceled after its first season.[7]
