Georgia King (born 18 November 1986) is a Scottish actress.[1]

Career

King made her professional debut in Jane Eyre.[2] She was nearly unable to play the role, however. "A week before the day she began filming, King felt stomach pains, then had her appendix rupture. Her agent told the producers that she was unlikely to recover from the operation to remove it for at least ten days."[3] Another actress was cast, but King recovered in time and was able to get the required medical clearance to film.

She is best known for her roles as Harriet, the head girl, in the 2008 film, Wild Child, and as the cruel and conniving Sophie in the 2009 slasher film, Tormented. She also performed in 'One Night In November' at the Belgrade Theatre in Coventry, October–November 2010, as well as being featured in the 2011 film Chalet Girl.

She has also appeared as Princess Elena in the episode The Changeling of the third series of the BBC fantasy drama series Merlin[4].

King also has completed filming the comedy horror film Cockneys vs Zombies, directed by Matthias Hoene, about a team of bank robbers battling the undead. The film also stars Michelle Ryan, Rasmus Hardiker and Jack Doolan, and it is currently in post-production, slated to be released later in 2012[5].

She is the daughter of actor Jonathan Hyde and opera singer Isobel Buchanan.
