I try to put myself into whatever character I play.

The only valid starting point is to understand what we all share - we have to find what we can all agree on.

I was working in the States when Brexit was going on back home in England. I often think that maybe I got a little complacent on the situation since I wasn't physically there. That's when I realized, Wow, anything is possible.

I don't really have one dish. I'm a very improvisational cook. I sort of like to make things up as I go along. I'm quite creative in the kitchen.

There is the old boys' club, but there are ­people who are "conviction lobbyists" coming from the heart.

As a biracial girl growing up in England, I'd never really seen any historical characters who looked like me depicted on film before that weren't being brutalized or playing slaves.

I'm just broadening my craft and stretching my skills a little bit in different directions.
