Women’s Wear Daily has recently chatted to Kaya about Wuthering Heights, and the emergence of new roles. Check out the photoshoot and interview below:

By starring in director Andrea Arnold’s adaptation of “Wuthering Heights,” Kaya Scodelario is the latest in a long line of British ingénues to earn her spurs in a period drama.

But the 19-year-old Londoner doesn’t channel the delicate turns of phrase and genteel manners that the genre is known for.

Costume drama is a long way from Skins — which tends more to uncostumed drama — but Kaya Scodelario made a brave leap from teenage television into the dark when she took the part last year of Cathy in Wuthering Heights.

“There were no rain machines,” she shudders. “It was all real.” The script was stripped of most dialogue; Scodelario was stripped of any make-up, and told to say lines “in my head”. Plus she had to work with three untrained actors, including James Howson as the first black Heathcliff.
