4Izzo became known for her roles in ''Film/{{Aftershock}}'' and ''Film/TheGreenInferno'', meeting Creator/EliRoth on the set of the former, [[RomanceOnTheSet who she then married]]. However, they later divorced. Izzo has come out since as pansexual in an interview with her friend (and fellow pansexual) Creator/EmilyHampshire, a Canadian actress, saying Hampshire's scene in ''Series/SchittsCreek'' discussing pansexuality made Izzo [[LGBTAwakening discover this about herself]]. Izzo married director and writer Sophie Tabet in March 2023.

22!Tropes in her work include:
23* ActorSharedBackground:
24** She's played multiple Latina women, though not Chileans.
25** Additionally she's also played characters with Italian heritage like her.
26* BigOlEyebrows: She has large, prominent eyebrows which help draw attention to her characters' faces.
27* CreatorCouple: She acted in films by her ex-husband Creator/EliRoth multiple times (they [[RomanceOnTheSet met on the first one]] while it was being filmed).
28* FakeAmerican: Due to having lived in the US for most of her life, she's largely played Americans.
29* MsFanservice: She's a beautiful woman (who has modeled in the past) and her roles sometimes showcase this through having her character in her underwear or a bikini, while she appeared topless in ''Film/TheGreenInferno'' and ''Film/{{Knock Knock|2015}}'' (however [[CookingTheLiveMeal the context]] [[DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale had made this]] [[FanDisservice less than appealing]]).
30* QueerCharacterQueerActor: She's played lesbians in ''Series/HemlockGrove'', ''Series/{{Casual}}'' and ''Series/{{Hacks}}'' (in the former two cases before coming out as pansexual).
