The Welsh actress has certainly made a name for herself in the world of film and television, with standout performances that have captivated audiences globally. She rose to prominence through her compelling roles in major productions like The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, where her talent truly shone. This Welsh actress also delivered a memorable performance in the television mini-series Dracula, further solidifying her reputation as a versatile and powerful on-screen presence.
Over the years, she’s built an impressive resume, appearing in notable series such as The Alienist, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, and His Dark Materials.

Her chilling and deeply emotional performance earned critical praise and marked her as one of the most exciting talents in the industry.
Before all the fame and red carpets, her journey began humbly. Early in her career, this Welsh actress had only taken on small roles in a few short films and minor TV cameos.

In her breakout performance, she truly shone in the titular role of Saint Maud, a role that not only captured critical acclaim but also earned her the prestigious BAFTA Rising Star Award and a Best Actress nomination at the British Independent Film Awards. Over time, she has opened up in various interviews about her personal journey, including the challenges she’s faced living with dyslexia and ADHD. Her honesty has resonated with many, making her an inspiring figure both on and off the screen. She continues to use her platform to advocate for greater awareness, showing just how much strength and resilience she brings—both as an actress and as a person.
