Fiona Shaw

Appointed as a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 2001 for her contribution to the film, theatrical, and televisual arts, Fiona Shaw is one of Britain’s most prized actresses.

She has worked with several international directors, including Alfonso Cuarón (Harry Potter), Jim Sheridan (My Left Foot), Bob Raffelson (Mountains of the Moon), Brian DePalma (The Black Dahlia), and Terrence Malick (The Tree of Life). She is known in the US for her television performance as the villainess witch ‘Marnie Stonebrook’ on HBO’s True Blood. On stage, she has excelled in a wide range of performances, including Olivier Award-winning performances in Electra, As You Like It, and The Good Person of Sichuan and Machinal, which also won her a London Evening Standard Theatre Award. Her outstanding role as the titular character of ‘Medea’ earned her an Evening Standard Award and a nomination for a Tony Award.

Aside from her work on Killing Eve, she can also be seen in the films Lizzie and Colette, as well as the TV series Mrs. Wilson. Last year she had the feature film IF, directed by John Krasinski, come out alongside Hot Milk, Park Avenue and Apple’s Echo Valley.

Next up she can be seen in Working Title/Georgia Oakley’s SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, the independent feature The Stalemate, Apple’s Presumed Innocent and Pride and Prejudice.
