Happy Birthday: Olivia Cooke

I did ballet and gymnastics, and then I started acting when I was eight – just doing amateur theater at a place called Oldham Theatre Workshop in my hometown.
My first big role was when I was 17 and I got the part playing Maria in ‘West Side Story’ in my school production.
I used to care more about my appearance, but after being in The Quiet Ones and seeing how grotesque I can be, I don’t have any dignity anymore.
