Morgana O’Reilly is one of New Zealand’s brightest screen talents.
She first broke into the spotlight with the cult hit ‘Housebound’, appeared in the Australian series ‘Wentworth’, and rubbed shoulders with award winners and music royalty in season 3 of ‘The White Lotus’.
The third season of HBO’s award winning series aired last year, and it seems to have changed O’Reilly’s life.
“People are really nice to me now,” she told Andrew Dickens.
“I’m pretty realistic about this industry, y’know, it’s fairly fickle. When you’re the cool kid at school, you’re the cool kid at school, but whether that stays that way, I don’t know.”
It’s opened a few doors for the Kiwi actress, allowing her to get some things without having to audition “over and over and over and over and over and over again.”
