Asked what inspires her, she said: “Singing, writing, music, being with friends and family. When you’re shooting you’re away for a long time... Going from a hotel room to a set, you live in this bubble that lasts the length of filming and when it’s done that’s it.
“So it’s important to go home, find your feet and reconnect with reality and go and play real people.”
