Zoë Scott

Zoë Scott is an English actress based in London. She found her love for performing at a very young age and, with encouragement from her parents, enrolled at a Saturday performing arts school. With the company she did many productions including performances at Her Majesty's Theatre. Scott comes from a family of non-actors but big theatre lovers and soon started starring in all her school plays. In accordance with her love of acting, she enrolled herself for a summer residential theatre course at Hurtwood House at the youngest permitted age of 14. The same year, Zoë starred as Juliet in 'Romeo & Juliet' for her school's annual senior production and was cast as Mandy in Dennis Kelly's hard hitting 'Osama The Hero' at Eton College. Zoë achieved a performing arts scholarship for drama & dance and continued to take acting courses and perform in local plays. She found herself more and more fascinated by film & TV and at the age of 15 did work experience as a runner at Pinewood Studios in the TV and Underwater Studios. Her experience of being on set propelled her imagination to want to act in films and she decided not to go to university and instead chase her dream of becoming a professional actor. In her final year of school, Zoë proceeded to write & direct her own immersive play and achieved her A Levels. Since leaving school Zoë has embarked on her journey to be a professional actor. She starred as the lead role in her first short film 'Ivy' four months after graduation. She continued her transition from theatre to film within the next year, taking more leading roles in short films and training at The Reel Scene academy for screen acting. Having progressed her knowledge and skills in film & TV, Zoë made the decision to get a formal acting training. She was accepted into the National Youth Theatre (NYT), Identity School for Acting (IDSA) and subsequently received a place at The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA). Zoë trained at RADA, thoroughly enjoying her time, until the pandemic abruptly hit in March 2020. Zoë landed her first feature film role in 'Misbehaviour' and made her Apple TV debut on 'The Essex Serpent'.
