Grimcutty
In 2022, Wolfkind starred in the Hulu original horror film Grimcutty. In an interview with UPI, Wolfkind talked about the relation to her character because her own parents didn't understand how the internet works. While critics on the whole were not kind to the film, some individual reviews highlighted Wolfkind's performance. Rob Price at Comic Watch said she was a "bit uneven in her performance, for the most part she was good, but there were times she just didn’t seem genuine." In a positive review of the film, Clement Tyler Obropta at Film Inquiry wrote that "Wolfkind plays the hell out of the role. She’s got bottomless reserves of pathos, and [writer-director John] Ross even trusts her to give a final ASMR address to the audience at the end of the picture. She’s the latest in a line of amazing young actresses emerging in Hollywood, many of whom got their start in horror: Wolfkind stands shoulder-to-shoulder in Grimcutty with Amber Midthunder in Prey, Jenna Ortega in X and Scream, Devery Jacobs in Rhymes for Young Ghouls and Blood Quantum, Anya Taylor-Joy in The Witch and Split, and Blu Hunt in The New Mutants — a legion of Gen Z Final Girls."
