Get to Know The Crown's Claire Foy With These 8 Fun Facts

In a 2012 interview with The Scotsman, Claire discussed how her looks affect the way she picks out roles. "I'm not the most beautiful girl in the world and I’m happy with that,” the (potentially blind) star confessed. "It means I don't go up for those two-dimensional roles where it actually says in the script 'Someone blonde, leggy, and beautiful walks into the room.' There are a lot of parts like that where basically all that’s required of the woman is to look amazing. I’m not going to be cast in them. I’m thankful for that. I only want to take parts that convince me."
