A costume designer has said she is living out her “dream” after landing work on the sets of some of her favourite shows.
Roxanne Warren, from Blackpool, was a fan of TV series Peaky Blinders before getting a job on its upcoming film, The Immortal Man. She said: “When I got the call to do the film, I was so excited!”
Working alongside Oscar-winning actor Cillian Murphy, Warren said he was “a gentleman” and “such a lovely man to work with”.
Despite being a fan of Murphy’s, she added: “No matter how you feel about the actor you have to hold it in because this is work!”
Her role as a costume breakdown artist involves “putting the character into the costume” by ageing or adapting clothes to fit the story, and can involve staining and splattering them with fake blood or mud. It proved a much-needed skill on The Immortal Man, which is set during wartime Britain in the 1940s.
