Hayley Marie-Axe is a multi-talented award-winning actor, who performs across film, TV and theatre productions. Her awards include Best Supporting Actress (Broadway Baby) and Best Actress (CKF International Film Festival).
In this new role in Dungeons & Dragons as Gwinn, The Barbarian, wife of Marlamin, Hayley joins an all-star cast including Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Regé-Jean Page, Justice Smith, Sophia Lillis, Chloe Coleman, Daisy Head and Hugh Grant.
The film presents the roleplaying game to the big screen in a hilarious and action-packed adventure. A charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers undertake an epic heist to retrieve a lost relic, things go dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people. Hayley’s character also shares a big screen moment with an exciting surprise cameo star in the film – the identify of which has been causing a major stir with media and movie fans alike.
“This was a dream role for me! As I’m 6ft tall, I am often cast as a warrior, but the difference with Gwinn is that although she is a Barbarian woman, she is very friendly and down to earth – which appeals to me because I’m a big softy at heart!”
