Daisy Edgar Jones talks about her friendship with Paul Mescal
She started off her career with roles in Cold Feet and Silent Witness, but after blockbuster success, there’s no stopping London’s biggest film export, says showbiz writer Nicole Lampert.With Twisters, Daisy hasn’t just been a star in front of the camera, but a key part of the marketing strategy, which has broken box-office records for first-week sales of any natural disaster movie, with takings having surpassed £250 million.
I was one of the first journalists to interview Daisy when she had her first meaty role at 20, in the TV series. It was early 2020, and I talked to her alongside her co-star, veteran actress Natasha Little, who told me there was something special about the London-born starlet. Daisy played Natasha’s visually impaired daughter.
She inhabited the part of Marianne so well, and she told me that this was partly because her own experiences matched those of someone who was still trying to figure out who they are. A few years later, she played Peter Pan in a school production. “My daughter was playing alongside her and Daisy shone, even then,” said a fellow parent.As with many actors, who only feel they can be themselves by inhabiting the skin of other people, acting was one of the few things that made Daisy feel confident. “When I was a teenager, I really believed in myself when it came to performance – in a way I wish I actually still had,” she toldin 2022.
