When you think about actresses who have been nailing intelligent and meaningful (lead) roles in the past decades, Gillian Anderson immediately comes to mind.
This American grande dame gained world-wide fame in the 90’s as FBI Special Agent Dana Scully in the genre-defining sci-fi series The X-Files, and went on to put her mark on series and movies alike.
Margaret ‘Iron Lady’ Thatcher in The Crown, Dr. Bedelia du Maurier in the 2013 Hannibal series, DSU Stella Gibson in The Fall, Jean Milburn in Netflix’ Sex Education, and so much more. Her efforts and portrayals stand as an inspiration to multiple generations.
You can also see her shine in a variety of genres, from the more serious The Last King of Scotland and American Gods, to comedies like The Spy Who Dumped Me and Johnny English: Reborn.
Come and meet this amazing actress on October 18-19, in Brussels Expo! Take your picture in photoshoots, shake hands in signing sessions, take a selfie together, or ask her questions in a huge Q&A panel, on both days.
