She sounds very genuine and smart, very well-adjusted and mature beyond her years, maybe growing up in the set actually makes you more mature, I don't know many 14-15 year olds who would express their ideas in such a graceful way. I'm glad that she doesn't have a jealous bone in her body and seems truly happy for Dev Patel's success, I hope her big break would come soon...
She's so different from her character. She's an amazing actress! I love Effy, especially when she was mysterious and kept her emotions to herself. Can't wait to see the roles Kaya gets in the future.
wow, she really is SO different from her character. that just makes me love her even more knowing how great of an actress she is. I love Kaya and Effy, one being a character and one being a person. I wish I was as pretty as her :)
She is such a stunning / beautiful young girl, but trust me ... the way she played her character in skins is so convincing, so real wow ... Especially in season 4 It was so dark, real and authentic it really touched me and had to cry so intense ... I had exactly the same sad and caring feeling when I watched the Amy Winehouse documentary ... Wish I could help her as a father, hold her tight and cuddle and see to it that everything will gonna be alright ...
It’s just amazing how far she has come from her days as Effy to films like The maze runner series,Pirates of the Caribbean and many many more. Also she doesn’t seems to aged much
i know, it's like if you hear the harry potter kids when they were their age they sound really smart too. i suppose one of three things happen: either they choose smart kids to be child actors because they think they'll handle the pressure well, or child actors (the good ones) are smarter than average so they can understand emotions or they just grow up faster (mentally) because they've started working so early
i think it might be a combination of the three, you need to be smart and hard working enough to know all your lines and be able to act properly through all emotions, and being around a crew of professionals all day definitely help them mature faster
funny thing is Tony was supposed to be main character, but Effy apparently been in it the longest out of all of them by end of season 4 she became the face of skins, seeing as how she was in 1-4 while the others 1-2 or 3-4 and 5-6 new cast. Effy is the longest running character on the show, and I herby declare Effy aka Kaya Scodelario the main female lead and main character overall. lol
Even after 11 years since this interview took place,Kaya doesn’t seemed to age at all and she’s definitely one of the few who’s down to earth And of coz incredibly talented
The director of the first two Potter movies (Chris Columbus) deliberately chose kids he thought were mature for their age and wouldn't be too messed up by child stardom. He'd worked with Macaulay Culkin and didn't want them to be affected like he was.
wow that really puts me in a new perspective, i had no idea he'd worked with macaulay culkin. he did a good job with the potter kids though, and i think that the way they handled the work so well (like kaya here above) has a lot to do with their intelligence and proves (in my opinion) that they deserve it a bit more, because no matter how talented you are, you do not deserve something if you are going to mess it up when you get it. like when you give precious toys to little kids. literally.
Owww... she's so pretty and so sweet. Don't worry, Kaya. One day you'll be able to walk on the red carpet in Hollywood like Dev did, coz you're such an amazing actress -- much much more amazing than other teenage actress in the US if I may say.
I just love Freddie, in my opinion, many boys can be more handsome, but it´s his attractiveness what makes me like him. By the way, Kaya is so mature, she´s the same age as me and I was surprised when I saw it, she looks older, not only physically, but mostly psychologically.
Lol dev, down to earth. From what ive seen his persona is a cheeky, comedian but i guess i haven't spent almost a year filming two seasons of skins with him.
id actually love to live my life like they do on skins ( but wthout all the drugs and drinking haaha) and coor freddy ♥♥♥ kaya is one lucky girl to come so far in life im jealous !!!shes amazing xxx
Yeahh, thank u, I knew they´re talking about one of the actors but I didn´t understand his name. Oh yeah they meant his success about Slumdog Millonaire film, when I started to watch the serie I didn´t realise he was the actor of that film.. and he even was known by me, but I wasn´t aware of that.
Yes, Kaya as Katniss!! She is absolutely perfect. And btw, who says Katniss isn't pretty? The fact that Gale and Peeta fall for her and that she catches Finnick's attention shows that she's quite a beautiful young woman, even if she doesn't realize it. So it makes complete sense for someone pretty to be cast in the role. And with her dark hair, talent, age and size/height, Kaya seems tailor made for the role.
@gaodargon the guy who played anmar in the first 2 series is the star in the movie slumdog millionare and shes talking about him at like the movie premier and stuff.
