It’s hard to believe the same actor who unsettled audiences in Deadpool & Wolverine was also the heart of My Policeman.
Emma Corrin has become one of the most intriguing actors of their generation. Rising to fame as Princess Diana in The Crown, they’ve built a career that challenges stereotypes and embraces bold, unconventional roles. In 2021, Corrin publicly came out as non-binary, a move that felt radical in an industry often hostile to queer expression. Since then, their choices on screen have reflected that same fearlessness.
They’ve gone from commanding the chaos of a Marvel blockbuster to carrying the emotional weight of a period romance; Corrin has shown remarkable range. For fans who want to explore more of their work, here’s a look at every movie and TV project Emma Corrin has starred in so far.
