Jodie Comer has received a Tony award nomination for her role in the play Prima Facie.
The actress, from Childwall, shot to fame for her role as Villanelle in Killing Eve, and she's since starred in Hollywood blockbuster Free Guy across Ryan Reynolds. Now, she's starring in a solo actor play on Broadway after a hugely successful run at the National Theatre in London.
The play was Jodie's West End debut starring as Tessa, a young barrister who has worked her way up to the top of her game from working class origins. The entire play is just Comer on stage, and was directed by Justin Martin and written by Suzie Miller.
