My interview for Yahoo! News is online

I recently gave an interview (in German) to Yahoo! News about my life in London after Brexit. It’s online now, go and have a little read:

Hag still

My new Showreel is on YouTube

Today I have decided to quit acting and join the Mars One project instead. It means that soon I will be spending the rest of my life on Mars as part of the first permanent human settlement there. I can’t wait, I’m so excited!

… This was a (significantly bad) April Fools’ Day joke of course. 

In other news, I have very recently uploaded a freshly edited version of my acting showreel. It’s on YouTube guys, go and check it out:

I just wrapped filming an exciting new urban drama with these guys. Watch out for “Only Wolves”!

 

Here’s a sneak peek of a dark and steamy scene featuring myself and the awesome Shone Romulus. I was playing an exotic dancer in this film and it was actually my first time playing a sexy character on screen – no nudity is to be seen however, I’m sorry to disappoint you all ;-).

 

“Only Wolves” will be released next year and it looks very promising. I’ll keep you updated about it of course.

At the “Finding Fatimah” Director’s Screening

I’m sooo excited to announce that “Finding Fatimah”, a hilarious new romantic comedy that I’m very grateful to have been a part of, will be out in cinemas from 21st April!

Watch the official trailer here:

 

I went to the Director’s Screening tonight and had such a great time catching up with everyone. This film is definitely worth seeing – very funny yet heartfelt and moving. A massive well done to everyone involved and working so hard to create this little masterpiece.

Manchester

I just wrapped filming for a new feature film

Today I wrapped filming in Manchester for an exciting new project which will be coming to cinemas next year. The working title of the film is “Love Eventually”, however this isn’t going to be the official name of it – in fact, the title hasn’t even been decided upon yet.

What I can tell you about the movie is that it’s a romantic comedy set within the British muslim community.

I am playing an Italian girl in this film and it’s actually my first time filming an all-Italian part. My character’s name is Adela. Here’s a picture of her, warming up in the car in between takes.
