British Actresses You Should Know: Ruth Wilson
Award-winning actress Ruth Wilson has the sort of wide-ranging career that encompasses both period classics (Jane Eyre) and groundbreaking contemporary gems (Luther).
She’s also one of those performers whose work is generally so consistently great that we often forget to talk about how great it is. (For example, Wilson’s performance is literally the only thing making any part of His Dark Materials’ first season work.)
A talented character actress, she excels at playing everything from her own grandmother (Mrs. Wilson) to distinctly morally grey types who are hard to put in boxes (The Affair).
