Why is she special?
Having spent over a decade toiling in the world of independent film, Sophie Okonedo has certainly earned her current status as a sought-after actress -- though this hasn’t stopped her from taking on roles based on their merits rather than their size.
Why we know her?
Though she’s been a staple in the British scene for years now, Sophie has only recently come to the attention of North American viewers thanks to her Oscar-nominated performance in 2004’s Hotel Rwanda.
