Quotes: |
My dad's [a retired] policeman, and my mum is a sales representative, and they haven't got the acting bug. Bless them.
<br />
<hr>
If I love the character, then that's all that matters to me. It doesn't really matter what genre it is.
<br />
<hr>
I did ballet and gymnastics, and then I started acting when I was eight--just doing amateur theater at a place called Oldham Theatre Workshop in my hometown.
<br />
<hr>
My first big role was when I was 17 and I got the part playing Maria in "West Side Story" in my school production.
<br />
<hr>
I used to care more about my appearance, but after being in The Quiet Ones (2014) and seeing how grotesque I can be, I don't have any dignity anymore. |
