Odds and Ends

First off, I was able to get hold of the Oct. 16th issue of The Sunday Times, and updated the scans, which you can check out in the gallery. Also, Company magazine has named Kaya one of their new style icons. Check below to read that they had to say:

New Style Icons: Kaya Scodelario

Best known for her role in the cult Skins, the gorgeous Kaya has gone on to star in a whole host of films and music videos, as well as managing to squeeze in a few appearances at fashion week. As she gets older her style as developed – as has our style crush!

Lastly, here’s another clip from Film 2011 with Claudia Winkleman:

Out of Her Skin

Now that my computer is back from repairs, here is a new interview from the Irish Times:

IF YOU THINK those Jane Austen fans are hardcore, doubtless you missed last year’s tweet storm – that’s a flame war in old-world net speak – down by Kaya Scodelario’s official Twitter feed. Emily Brontë fans were forced to reach for the smelling salts as the Skins star shared her good news: “I’m gonna be in the new Wuthering Heights film!” wrote Scodelario. “As Cathy! Should probs read the book…” She never did. Director Andrea Arnold forbade the young actor from reading the source novel and from watching any older adaptations. Hours before the film’s London premiere, Scodelario has yet to crack the spine on the third Brontë sister’s only surviving tome.

“I read a lot, but never came across it,” says the 19-year-old. “And I’m quite a technical person. I like to research. It was hard to stay away. But I understood. She wanted us to be very raw. Actually, I never read a whole script. The first time I found out what happened to the characters was when I saw the film.”

Little White Lies Interview

Little White Lies has posted a new interview with Kaya today, where they talk about filming Wuthering Heights. You can read it below:

Since finding her acting feet in British teen soap Skins, Kaya Scodelario has notched up roles in a low-budget British sci-fi (Moon), a mega-bucks Hollywood blockbuster (Clash of the Titans) and now an art-house period drama. LWLies sat down with Scodelario recently to discuss the gravity of taking on the female lead in Andrea Arnold’s atmospheric Wuthering Heights.

LWLies: Have you seen the film yet? What did you think?

Scodelario: I really liked it! It was weird because I never received a full script, we were given the lines the day before shooting. So watching the film was the first time I knew what was going on in the rest of the film! So it was really cool to watch. I took some friends as well, who I know would never have gone to see it if I wasn’t in it. They’d think, ‘That’s not my thing,’ and they really enjoyed it. It was nice to know that a younger generation enjoyed it.
