Emerald Fennell is a Golden Globe® and Emmy® nominated writer, creator, filmmaker, and actress.

On April 17th, Fennell’s new film in which she wrote and directed, PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN will be released by Focus Features both domestically and internationally. The press have voiced their enthusiasm for the recently released trailer which has garnered over 17 million views and fans have expressed excitement for a feminist, timely take on the revenge genre. The film was recognized as one of the top scripts of the 2018 Blacklist.

Fennell can currently be seen in Season 3 of THE CROWN playing Camilla Parker Bowles, for which she’s receiving rave reviews. Prior to that, she served as Head Writer on Season 2 of KILLING EVE for which she was just nominated for a Golden Globe.

She is currently writing a contemporary musical stage version of CINDERELLA alongside Andrew Lloyd Weber.

Fennell’s debut short, CAREFUL HOW YOU GO, which she wrote and directed, premiered at Sundance in 2019. Before this, she sold a pilot, SPACE BOUND, to Fox with Gail Berman attached as the producer.

Fennell has published three novels: SHIVERTON HALL along with the sequel, THE CREEPER and MONSTERS (2017 Carnegie Medal nominee), all of which were incredibly well-received and drew comparisons ranging from Roald Dahl to Bret Easton Ellis.
