“There’s so much hope for the [film] industry. I never had an Elle—someone to watch on screen and think ‘that’s me!’ We see a lot of queer coverage in the US but I think there’s a big lack here sometimes in the UK; especially Black queer representation. So, to be at the forefront of this dazzles my mind.”
