Billie Piper, now focusing on directing, is wrapping up a romcom draft in Camden. Known for her role as Rose Tyler in 'Doctor Who', sheâs pivoted to portray characters at emotional breaking points. Recently nominated for a Bafta for her role in 'Scoop', based on the controversial Prince Andrew interview, Piper highlights the complexities of female representation. She believes the challenges women face are increasing, expressing concerns about a growing hostility towards feminism, particularly highlighted by her experiences as a mother.
I've seen it a lot, I've been it, and I'm not afraid of it! You can be a woman on the edge, but also be a soulful woman, a playful woman and a funny woman.
That interview was one of the most shocking things I've seen on TV. I'd followed the Epstein story very closely, with huge rage â the size, the scale, the privilege and the bullshitting.
One of my aims with my work is to lift the lid on what it means and what it costs to be female. I wonder if there is a greater hostility from guys towards girls.
It feels like, in many ways, we're going backwards. There's certainly a world available to men that violently rejects feminism or emancipation. It's really frightening.
