Rebecca's expanding Hall of Fame
From Broadway to The BFG, Rebecca Hall's career is proof that she is undoubtedly one of the most versatile and accomplished actors of her generation
On paper, Rebecca Hall is what the people of the North would call a 'dose'. She is the daughter of Sir Peter Hall, the renowned director and founder of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Daddy directed Hall in her first role aged 10 in The Camomile Lawn on TV and later in her professional stage debut in Mrs Warren's Profession. Not only did Hall go to Roedean, she was head girl.
At Cambridge, she shared a flat with Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey) and hung around with Eddie Redmayne and Tom Hiddleston.
