Ava Talbot

Ava Talbot has this kind of electric presence—like, you see her pop up and instantly think, “Yeah, I’m sticking around for this.” She’s not just some background extra, either. You’ll maybe remember her from Trying (2020), that sweet, awkward British comedy about a couple desperate to adopt. Ava just knows how to nail those tiny moments, the stuff that makes you awkward-laugh and cringe at the same time. Then she switches it up completely in That Christmas (2024), which is all about the chaos and mess of holiday family drama. Who doesn’t love a good festive meltdown, right? Ava leans into the madness and manages to make the whole thing feel weirdly relatable, like she’s one of those cousins you only see at Christmas but wish you saw more. And don’t sleep on Plebs (2013)! That show’s got a cult following for a reason, and Ava fits right into the bizarre little universe—a world where ancient Rome feels more like a dodgy London flatshare than a history lesson. Somehow, she manages to turn even the smallest roles into something memorable, bringing this offbeat charm and a bit of mischief. There’s just something about her that sticks with you, probably because she doesn’t feel like she’s acting at all; it’s like she’s just living it, flaws and all, and you can’t help but root for her. So yeah, Ava Talbot: not just a name in the credits, but someone who actually leaves a mark.
