She was in On Chesil Beach last year, a movie based on Ian McEwan’s novel of the same name, and starred along Saoirse Ronan in the period piece. ... With The Long Song on the horizon though, I’m anticipating she’s going to be scooped up for many more projects — especially as it sounds like she’s pouring her heart and soul into the upcoming BBC programme.
