Rosy McEwen on Acting, Authenticity, and Breaking Boundaries • CelebMafia

British actress Rosy McEwen discusses her transformative roles, from Blue Jean to Black Mirror, and her commitment to powerful female narratives.

Rosy McEwen, the rising star who captivated audiences with her BIFA-winning performance in Blue Jean, graces Glass Magazine’s Spring 2025 issue in a sleek, tailored suit—think sharp lines and minimalist elegance. The ensemble, paired with understated gold accessories, mirrors her on-screen intensity: polished yet unafraid of raw edges. McEwen’s career is a study in duality, balancing indie grit (Rabbit Trap, Harvest) with mainstream allure (Scarpetta, Black Mirror S7).

Her approach to roles? “If my heart beats faster reading the lines, that’s it,” she says, championing stories that amplify women’s voices. Whether channeling Charlize Theron’s fearlessness in Monster or navigating Thatcher-era homophobia in Blue Jean, McEwen thrives on complexity.
