Jessica looks great in the shots for The Heiress, her and Dan Stevens make quite a pretty pair!
And I read this quote from Jessica about the play and her character, Catherine, that I thought was just lovely. What I like about Jessica as an actress is how she often chooses characters with interesting story-arcs and complex lives. I respect that she doesn't go for vapid characters.

"The story's very relevant because throughout history, women have been defined by the men in their life," she says. "And Catherine, in the beginning of the play is defined by her father and then she's defined by her suitor and at the end, she sets boundaries and she's defined by herself. And I'm really moved by that."
