18 year old Lara Peake has burst onto the small screen this spring, playing sullen rebel Chrissy in Channel 4’s anticipated four-part psychological thriller, Born To Kill.

The newcomer’s performance in the drama, alongside her two young co-stars (Jack Rowan and Earl Cave), has been described by The Telegraph as 'quite superb', and the Nottingham born actress will gain further exposure this year when indie feature How to Talk to Girls at Parties debuts as Cannes, which she stars in alongside Elle Fanning, Nicole Kidman and Ruth Wilson. Peake also just finished shooting Scott Mann's new feature film, Final Score, starring opposite Pierce Brosnan and Dave Bautista.
