Born and raised in Melbourne, Australia, Campbell aspired to be an actress from a young age and first appeared on stage in a Playhouse play as a child actor. She made her film debut in the adventure/fantasy movie Peter Pan (2003) and gained early recognition for her roles in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), Bridge to Terabithia (2007), and Case 39 (2009). Campbell rose to fame with her performance in The Hunger Games Series (2012-2015), portraying Scarlett Meadowtide.

Postponing her acting career, Campbell got noted by a representative of South Korean talent agency JYP Entertainment and invited to participate in the auditions in Sydney, which she passed in March 2013. She moved to Seoul, South Korea for her K-Pop training the same year after passing the audition. In 2015, Campbell joined a lineup for an upcoming rock band by the name of Day6. She made her debut as the pianist and lead vocalist on September 7, 2015, and continued her music career until 2018, where she left the group due to health issues and other problems regarding her relationship between her and JYP Entertainment.

Campbell shifted to adult roles in 2017 with her performances in Molly's Game, which won her a LAOFCS Award for Best Actress and Get Out. She was also nominated for Golden Globe Awards during this period.

As a public figure, Campbell is a prominent brand endorser, global ambassador for brands, and supports various charities. She has been given the title "Nation's Sweetheart" in South Korea, as well as "Nation's Little Sister" for her bright, innocent, and cute personality. She dated Josh Hutcherson from 2012 to 2014, and Young K, whom she dated from the same group at that time, from 2017 and called it quits after a few weeks. In 2019, Campbell married Day6 member Jae Park.
