Emma D'Arcy

Emma D'Arcy is one of the most compelling performers to emerge from recent prestige television. Born in Enfield in 1992, they vaulted to global recognition as Rhaenyra Targaryen in House of the Dragon, earning two Golden Globe nominations for a role that demands cold authority and raw vulnerability in the same breath. What I admire is the range underneath the fame: stage, film, television and music, plus a refusal to be boxed in by gender that they carry with genuine ease. That stage-trained backbone is exactly what lets them shoulder such a difficult part. I think their best work is still ahead.
