What is Emma Thompson siblings Sophie Thompson?
Growing up in England, Emma Thompson gravitated towards writing and the arts, eventually pursuing an English degree at Newnham College at Cambridge.
While there, she began to find her calling in acting, especially when she joined the school’s sketch comedy group that included the likes of Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry. As she finished her time in school, she began to work her way onto the small screen, starting to break out in the mid-1980s with roles on shows such as “Tutti Frutti” (BBC 1987) and “Fortunes of War” (BBC1 1987), the latter of which is where she met her first husband Kenneth Branagh, who she would also go on to work with on a variety of films, including “Henry V” (1989), “Dead Again” (1991), and “Much Ado About Nothing” (1993). Her role in the Anthony Hopkins-starring “Howards End” (1992) drew her much acclaim and earned Thompson numerous Best Actress accolades, including an Academy Award, a Golden Globe, and a BAFTA.
The following year, she joined the exclusive club of getting a nomination for two projects, in this case, for “In the Name of the Father” (1993) and “The Remains of the Day” (1993), though she won neither award. Her marriage with Branagh ended around the same time as “Sense and Sensibility” (1995) debuted, which Thompson starred in and also wrote.
