Kerry is currently starring in the BBC adaptation of Sally Rooney's novel CONVERSATIONS WITH FRIENDS. Her performance has garnered critical acclaim.
On film, Fox’s latest collaborations have led to competition screenings in the world’s most prestigious festivals. Jessica Hausner’s LITTLE JOE in official competition at Cannes, Billie Piper’s RARE BEASTS at Venice, Miranda Tapsell’s TOP END WEDDING at Sundance. This follows a career of award-winning performances after first starring in Jane Campion’s AN ANGEL AT MY TABLE then Danny Boyles’ SHALLOW GRAVE, Micheal Winterbottom’s WELCOME TO SARAJEVO (also up for the Palmes d’Or) and the Berlinale Golden Bear winning INTIMACY dir Patrice Chéreau, for which Kerry was awarded the Silver Bear for Best Performance. Fox’s quirkier performances are appreciated in the likes of the dark anti-rom-com BRAKES, dir Mercedes Grower, and opposite Kate Winslett in Jocelyn Moorhouse’s THE DRESSMAKER. At home in the UK, Fox has featured in varied TV and stage performances, most recently in THE SPLIT (ITV) and Channel 4’s NATIONAL TREASURE alongside Robbie Coltrane and Julie Walters and she stepped onto the West End stage at a moment’s notice to fill the role of Big Momma in CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF alongside Colm Meaney and Sienna Miller.
