Episode 1: Sophie Wilde

We’ve always said that if she reads, she reads ELLE. Now, if she listens to podcasts, she listens to What the ELLE? We have an amazing line-up of guests for you, kicking off with our inimitable relaunch cover star Sophie Wilde. Sophie is having a very good 2024. She just won her first AACTA, for her star-making role in the cult A24 horror film Talk To Me. She got nominated for a BAFTA Rising Star Award alongside Ayo Ebidiri and Jacob Elordi (and went viral with Prince William in the process). She wrapped filming on the erotic thriller Babygirl with Nicole Kidman and Antonio Banderas. And she became a bonafide fashion icon, working with Loewe, Chanel, Gucci, and more. Here, our editor and host Grace O'Neill talks to Sophie about shooting ELLE's relaunch cover, idolising Audrey Hepburn, learning to hone her taste, working with Nicole Kidman, and more.
