It seems to come as a big surprise when I tell them, ‘Nope, not from London, I’m from Wicklow.’ They’re like, ‘Get outta here.’ It happens all the time. And I have people asking me, ‘Do you play on your Irishness over in Hollywood? They love the Irish there.’ And while I’m sure it’s an advantage for some actors, it’s never, ever played any part for me. I think it’s because in all my work, I usually play British and I live in London. They just presume that’s where I’m from. Maybe it’s worked in my favour, though. Some actors, when they come to LA, find themselves pigeonholed and put into that box. You know, the wee Irish box and it’s difficult to break away. I haven’t had to contend with that. — Katie McGrath
