Described by BAFTA as “an industry go-to” for entertainment coverage, Elle is known for her incisive work as an interviewer – whether she’s hanging out backstage with Ralph Fiennes, unearthing scrapped scenes with the directors of Everything Everywhere All At Once, or persuading Elisabeth Moss to spill secrets about The Handmaid’s Tale.
