She grew up in Switzerland[3] and Madrid[4] and from age 15, she was educated, primarily in art history and dance, at Gordonstoun in Duffus.[5] At the age of 17, she impersonated her grandfather in a school play, an adaption of A Midsummer Night's Dream at the Edinburgh International Festival.[6] After leaving Gordonstoun she was accepted to study at the famous RADA. One of her first cinema appearances was a cameo appearance in the James Bond movie Quantum of Solace.[7] Oona was considered for the role as the main Bond girl, however the role eventually went to friend Gemma Arterton.
