For VOGUE UK, Ben WELLER c/o LGA MGMT photographed Marianne Jean-Baptiste, who is currently starring in Mike Leigh's family drama "Hard Truths" in cinemas. In the film, she plays the role of Pansy, an angry yet ironically drawn character who finds herself in constant conflict with the world as soon as she steps outside. Her malice carries a humorous undertone, and her insults are almost of literary quality, according to critics. In the interview, the London actress reflects on the emotional challenges of her performance and the audience's reactions.
Notably, she enjoyed her collaboration with celebrity photographer Ben Weller, which is evident in the striking portraits that resulted from the shoot. The images capture the energy Jean-Baptiste brings to her role, presenting the actress in a very personal and profound light. For more information about the photographer, please contact LGA.
