They Said

People Sophie has worked with

“She’s incredibly charming in real life, and I just went ‘I want that – don’t try and be someone else, just be you for this character’. ” – Rachel Ward, director of Beautiful Kate

“She’s got a luminous presence. The reason I thought she was great was because she had that slight edgy, teenage rebellious quality to her but she was this lovely screen presence that kind of takes you in.” - Ana Kokkinos, director of Blessed

“Sophie Lowe was quite unknown when we met for Road Kill, but right after the shoot, she was nominated for the Best Actress AFI Award for her work on Rachel Ward’s Beautiful Kate. She’s untrained and completely natural; she just feels the character in her bones and gives the camera everything. There’s no doubt that Sophie will be an international name before too long. Amazing, extraordinary talent.” – Dean Francis, director of Road Kill

“Sophie Lowe was the wildcard and I had a struggle convincing investors to trust her in the ‘final girl’ role because everything she had done before that was a meek and mild character, but I knew that she would be able to pull off ‘warrior woman’ with style and ease. So I was thrilled with the cast and had a wonderful time working with all of them. We really supported one another through a very grueling and challenging shoot and remain great friends.” – Dean Francis, director of Road Kill

“It was a real treat for us to get her. We were very excited when she said yes and hugely excited when we saw the day one rushes. She´s young and new to it and still learning her craft, but there is something that happens between her and that inch of glass in the camera lens. She´s one of these rare young women who is born to be one the 40-foot screen.” – Ryan Hodgson, producer of Blame

“I think she´s a naturally giften actor. Her ability to emote and communicate what´s going on in her head with just her eyes or the curl of her lips is quite remarkable. She´s quite a find. And with her kind of talent and her kind of look, I´d be surprised if she doesn´t travel. It´s a big world out there and she´ll be competing for roles with big names in her age bracket. But I think she´s the real deal and a great export for our industry.” – Ryan Hodgson, producer of Blame

“She’s amazing and very funny. We worked in groups for my second audition and we got paired together. I remember walking in and sitting down. Then Sophie came in and I knew who she was straight away. She started laughing and at that moment I had a feeling she was going to get the role because her cheekiness reminded me of Connie.” – Blake Davis, co-star in The Slap

 

Reviewers

“Sophie Lowe is radiant as Kate – ambiguous to the very end. We are able to understand her vulnerability, as well as her devastating stubbornness.” - Melissa Wellham, Tresspass magazine

“Sophie Lowe is a discovery…” - Jim Schembri, The Age newspaper

“Sophie Lowe brings a frightening intensity to her role as Natalie…” – Greg King, Beat Magazine
