Daddario also landed a recurring role on NBC's TV Series Parenthood as Rachel, who serves as a receptionist at The Luncheonette.

She played the main protagonist in the slasher film Texas Chainsaw 3D.

Texas Chainsaw 3D was released in January 2013.

In the end of 2012, Daddario starred in the music video for Imagine Dragons's "Radioactive".
