Imogen Poots
While intending to become a veterinary surgeon, she began spending Saturdays at an improvisation workshop hosted by the Young Blood Theatre Company at the Riverside Studios in Hammersmith.[3][6] Poots first appeared on-screen in a 2004 episode of Casualty and had a non-speaking role in 2006's V for Vendetta, but she was largely unknown when, at the age of 17, Juan Carlos Fresnadillo cast her in the horror film 28 Weeks Later, released in 2007.[7][8][9][10] Although Poots has never formally trained as an actress, according to Giles Hattersley, she developed her acting skills through a practical apprenticeship that may have served her well, as she is "compellingly natural" in front of the camera.[12][13] In 2012, Poots played the acrimonious young violinist Alexandra Gelbart opposite Catherine Keener and Philip Seymour Hoffman in A Late Quartet.In 2015, she appeared opposite Owen Wilson in She's Funny That Way with Jennifer Aniston and Knight of Cups with Cate Blanchett,[15] has been cast in the adaptation of Jess Walter's novel Beautiful Ruins,[16] and reunited with Yelchin for Green Room.
