I don't think this severe center part is the most flattering hairstyle for her. She is absolutely lovely, though, and is the one part of the new Transformers movie that is getting good reviews. Hopefully we will see more of her.

I agree with you on the hairstyle. I like that she's experimenting with her outfits on the red carpet.

Best known for portraying Meredith Quill in the Guardians of the Galaxy series as well as Viviane Wembly within Transformers: The Last Knight, English actress Laura Haddock realised her dream of working with Spanish producer Álex Pina soon after joining the cast of Netflix’s mystery-thriller, White Lines.​

Having binge-watched Pina’s popular show Money Heist that’s also on the Netflix platform, her lead role on the British-Spanish White Lines not only allowed Haddock to establish her versatility as an actress but also gifted her with many unforgettable memories with a cast she became incredibly close with.
In conversation with 1883, Haddock recounts her experience working with Pina, recalls her fondest memories with the cast and crew of White Lines and speaks of her upcoming project The Laureate.

Shortly before you received the script for White Lines, you binged Money Heist and said you wanted to work with Álex Pina? Do you remember your first reaction when you actually got the opportunity to work with him?
I was so excited. I had so much I wanted to say to Álex but the language barrier was stopping us from having a proper conversation so initially there were lots of thumbs up and me trying to act out my favourite scenes from Money Heist and Alex smiling at me appreciating the effort but none the wiser. Marta Milans who plays Kika in the show came to our rescue; she is bilingual and began translating everything I was saying to Alex and his responses. We did this for about an hour. She — and he — are wonderful.​

What message or advice would you give mothers out there who might feel like they can’t follow their passion anymore once they have a child?
It’s difficult to try and be and do everything; being a mum is a full-time job, therefore, anything we do alongside that is either a necessity or has been something we love, are truly passionate about and couldn’t imagine our lives without. But it’s, at times, difficult to balance the two. I know my children will be proud of me and my decision to continue working, doing something I love; it’s important to me that it positively impacts their lives as well as mine. It’s also important to me they understand positive work ethic, that they too can follow their dreams, whatever they might be and have a family. It’s a balancing act but it can be done. It’s also interesting to me that men don’t get asked this very same question. Women have always needed to justify being a mother and having a career; it shouldn’t be this way, but it still is.

As an actor what kind of scenes do you find particularly challenging or daunting to tackle?
This completely depends. Sometimes the scene you are most anxious about filming becomes your most favourite and one you were excited about shooting ends up being tricky.
