WSJ. Magazine 2018 TV Innovator: Phoebe Waller-Bridge, doesn’t let the status quo stand in her way. When she couldn’t find roles in TV, film, or theater that she wanted to play; she created them. First she astounded TV critics with the provocative show Fleabag, which delved deeply into the life on a single woman in London, haunted by a recent tragedy. Most recently her award-winning series Killing Eve turned the espionage genre on its head by casting two women in the lead roles of spy and criminal. What you see onscreen is what you get offscreen too--her writing room and production crews are diverse, allowing for multiple perspectives to come through in her work.
