Delainey Hayles:
It's hard to believe that Interview with the Vampire is Delainey Hayles' first ever starring role. Her powerful, haunting performance as Claudia firmly holds its own against more established actors Jacob Anderson and Sam Reid, and is a performance that needs to be seen to be believed and should place her not only in the awards conversation but at the top of every casting list as well.
Next up for Hayles is a supporting role in Mike Flanagan's series adaptation of Carrie, an opportunity she describes as a "pinch me" moment: "On a random Friday I got a letter from Mike Flanagan. No Friday has topped that since."
