The 40-year-old actor, who was appointed an OBE by the Queen at Buckingham Palace rwecently, says the director launched her acting career and gave her “a chance when nobody else would” have, reported Femalefirst.
“I credit so much to Danny Boyle. He really gave me a chance when nobody else would at the start of my career when I had no credits to my name,” she said.
“Later on he gave me a part in Frankenstein (2015) at the National after having left drama school 10 years before and not having done any theatre. He took a chance again and that’s how Bond happened,” she said.
