Ruth Wilson

Fearne Cotton
About this episode

Actor Ruth Wilson feels she can’t help but bring the essence of herself to all the characters she plays. She’s learnt that in both her professional and personal life the most rewarding moments come from being the most authentic version of herself.


In this chat with Fearne, Ruth wonders whether embodying so many different characters has helped her be less judgemental of other people and herself in real life, and they both explore how we can learn more about ourselves through our relationships with others.


True Things is out in UK cinemas on April 1st.


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
