Russell Tovey

Hulu has officially set a premiere date for The Sister, a mystery thriller from Luther creator Neil Cross that stars Russell Tovey. 

Like many of you, I’ve been watching the HBO quasi-dystopian drama Years and Years with a combination of great affection and uncomfortable nerve-jangling anxiety. Referred to as “Black Mirror with a heart”, the finale of this six-part series just aired on HBO this week, but it’s not too late to discover what all the fuss is about.

This month our Carmen Croghan has chosen to profile one of those British actors that she's been following so long he sort of feels like family.

At just 37, he's tackled stage, film and television and tried his hand at sci-fi, comedy, thrillers, animation and period pieces always with his trademark vulnerablity. And though Russell Tovey might not be a name that you recognize immediately, you’re sure to have seen him (and his signature “sticky-out” ears) in action.
