From silk robes to fluffy sweaters, actor CHARLOTTE BEST settles into winter’s most luxurious wares with all the aplomb of her latest role: front-and-centre star
The life an actor leads can seem a world away from the average person, and that’s before you start to factor in the job itself...
I mean, have you ever been asked how you would like to look while you’re drowning? Charlotte Best has, and after some thought she leaned into “scary, horrific and painful”, using a certain scene from the James Bond film Casino Royale as reference.
If you’ve seen Tidelands, the Australian-produced Netflix series that centres on modern-day sea sirens living among humans in a fictitious town called Orphelin Bay, you’ll understand exactly why this odd thought experiment (plus a few intense weeks of underwater skills training) was required. If not, the eight-part series, which is led by Best, is streaming now and marks a turning point for the Sydney-based actor as she moves from up-and-comer to front-and-centre star.
