You may have already read the premise of The Gentlemen. If not, the short gist of the series is that Eddie Horniman (played by Theo James) suddenly inherits his late father's estate, along with the Duke of Halstead title.

What Eddie doesn't know, however, is that the estate comes with a multimillion weed empire spearheaded by Susie Glass (played by Kaya Scodelario). Susie's father, Bobby Glass (played by Ray Winstone), is currently serving a prison sentence.

With his new role, Eddie must get accustomed to a life of crime. Thankfully, he has Susie to help him out.

In an interview, Scodelario explains her character:

"She's the smartest one in the room, and when she's not speaking, she's observing. She knows what strings to pull, and I really wanted to take my time with her so we see throughout the series just how much power she actually yields. I like that she's quite subtle at the beginning that there are moments where she could be loud and she could be doing very violent things, but she doesn't—yet."

Because of how well she carried her role, avid fans of the series are taking to social media to express their appreciation for Scodelario.

Upon first glance, many thought the actress playing Susie Glass in The Gentlemen was Riley Keough. But after seeing the credits, it turns out that the two have a strong resemblance.

The British actress, however, has been in various films and TV shows. You might remember Scodelario in Pirates of the Caribbean, Resident Evil, and as Teresa in The Maze Runner movies.

She was also in E4's Skins, where she started as the younger sister of Nicholas Hoult's Tony Stonem, Effy. By the time Skins was up for its third season, Scodelario became a lead character of the show.

Scodelario is set to star in the upcoming Netflix biopic, Senna, which follows the story of F1 driver, Ayrton Senna. A release date for this biopic has not yet been announced.
