The role could dwarf the success of Scots comedian Richard Gadd’s hit mini-series.
She claimed she had struggled to get acting parts despite playing Baby Reindeer ’s deranged stalker Martha in Richard Gadd ’s mini-series to perfection.
London-based Scots law graduate Fiona Harvey later claimed Gadd had based the stalker on her and is hoping to cash in with a defamation lawsuit because she has never been to prison. But Gunning, from West Yorkshire, said she had yet to cash in on the role as the Scots stalker despite picking up the Emmy award for her portrayal of Gadd’s obsessive nemesis, which Gadd said he based on his real-life experiences at her hands prior to finding fame.
She has been enlisted to star opposite Claire Foy in an adaptation of Enid Blyton’s classic children’s story The Faraway Tree alongside an all-star cast and is sure to become a favourite among pre-teen viewers. Derry Girls star Coughlan has been cast as woodland fairy Silky. Also starring in the hotly anticipated film is Ted Lasso's Nonso Anozie, who has been cast as Moonface. Baby Reindeer star Gunning has been announced as Dame Washalot and Dustin Demri-Burns as Saucepan Man.
