“I didn’t think I had childhood ‚heroes‘, but still in the end I realised I had – kind of. One of my absolutely biggest ‚heroes‘ and inspirations happens to be the lovely Gena Rowlands, who recently passed away. In my opinion, she was one of the best actors in the world. What she did in every picture frame was so true, so strong, so spellbinding, so touching. So when I got to walk in her shoes by playing Jeannie Rapp in the stage version of ‚faces‘ it was like I came full circle.”

In fact, I just watched Hanna’s first showreel scene again and thought, everything she so wonderfully says about Gena Rowland is so true about Hanna and her acting, too!
*** Happy birthday, dear Hanna! Have a lovely day with lots of love. We’re proud to represent you and are looking forward to new adventures!
