Olivia Cooke

I did ballet and gymnastics, and then I started acting when I was eight - just doing amateur theater at a place called Oldham Theatre Workshop in my hometown.

My first big role was when I was 17 and I got the part playing Maria in 'West Side Story' in my school production.

When I was filming 'Ouija,' there were some elements in that that really creeped me out.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.

In novelas, sometimes you get the most ridiculous situations, but you make the best of it. But novelas are a very special genre.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.
