Elizabeth Dormer-Phillips

Elizabeth Dormer-Phillips isn’t exactly a household name, but if you’ve been paying attention to British TV and indie films, her face probably rings a bell. She’s been popping up in some pretty wild projects over the past few years. Take “Off the Rails” (2021) — a sort-of messy, bittersweet comedy where she finds herself tangled up in a group of friends’ attempts to honor a promise, and, honestly, her knack for stealing scenes is no joke. You can feel that raw, unfiltered energy she brings, like she’s just daring the camera to catch her off guard. Then there’s “The Moor” (2023), which couldn’t be more different. That film oozes moody atmosphere, and Elizabeth flips the switch into full-on psychological drama. She digs deep, balancing vulnerability and grit, all while the landscape itself feels like it’s closing in. It’s not one of those performances you forget about; she’s got this way of making every line cut a little deeper. Let’s not forget “Fortitude” (2015), either. That show was bonkers—icy, tense, with a cast as unpredictable as the plot. Her character added a sharp edge, and you could tell she was having a blast with the material. There’s something about her performances, this kind of unvarnished honesty mixed with a bit of mischief, that makes you want to see what she’ll do next. She’s flying a bit under the radar, but honestly, it feels like she’s just getting started.
