[Filming 'Emily'] was very intense, I can't lie. It was amazing. It was brilliant because I love literature and I love history. So it kind of brought the two worlds together for me. It's not a biopic, which is quite good because we actually don't know an awful lot about Emily Brontë because she was a very private person. The clever thing that Frances O'Connor, who is the director and writer, is she kind of interwove elements of Wuthering Heights with some biographical elements. So it is a complete reimagining of her life and we kind of just flesh out a completely new person in a way. It's based on Brontë's life but it's really a reimagining. We created a world for her, which is really exciting. It kind of takes the pressure off slightly from playing a real-life human being.
