Aimee Lou Wood Career

Following an impressive period in drama school, Aimee Lou faced high expectations. She auditioned for the Netflix series Sex Education and was cast shortly thereafter. Initially, Aimee was considered for the role of Lily but was ultimately chosen to play Aimee Gibbs instead.

In a story similar to that of Emma Mackey, Asa Butterfield, Ncuti Gatwa, Gillian Anderson, and other stars from Sex Education, Wood has been chosen to join a youthful ensemble cast for the celebrated series, which has received multiple nominations.

In addition, Wood decided it was prudent to seek a management professional to oversee her career as an actress, leading to her collaboration with Lizzie Newell from Independent Talent Group as her representative.

Her roles in Hen and the Electrical Life of Louis Wain significantly boosted her popularity within a span of two years. She also appeared in Living, the English adaptation of the 1952 Japanese movie Ikiru, directed by Oliver Hermanus, which is set to be released in 2021.

Role in Movies

Additionally, Aimee has made a name for herself through her performances in theater, having appeared at the National Theatre in London.

Her work on stage has refined her acting abilities and established her as a versatile talent. Over the years, Aimee has collaborated with prominent directors and actors in theatrical productions like People, Places & Things and Uncle Vanya.

Aimee’s skills extend beyond mere acting her dedication to the arts and her eagerness to embrace tough roles position her as an emerging star in both film and theater. Fans eagerly anticipate the new roles Aimee will take on in the future.

RADA and gaining recognition and love in Sex Education

Aimee attended the renowned acting institution RADA in London, where she completed her studies in 2017. She mentioned that during her time there, she faced pressure to reduce her northern accent.

In an interview with Radio Times, she explained, “They told us that received pronunciation would be the primary accent required, advising me to tone down my accent, but that hasn’t happened at all – if anything, people encourage me to emphasize it more!”

Following graduation, Aimee concentrated on theater, making her professional debut on stage as a handmaiden in Mary Stuart at the Almeida Theatre.

She then toured across the country in Duncan Macmillan’s People, Places and Things and made her U.S. stage debut in 2018 with Bruce Norris’s Downstate, later marking her West End debut as Sonya in the 2020 revival of Uncle Vanya at the Harold Pinter Theatre.

However, it was her role as Aimee Gibbs in Netflix’s edgy and boundary-pushing series Sex Education that catapulted her to stardom and transformed her life.

She remarked, “We were completely unaware that it would become such a phenomenon. It was a surprise for all of us. You’re walking down the street, and suddenly, people recognize you.”

Love life with a Sex Education co-star

Aimee was in a relationship with her Sex Education co-star Connor Swindells for two years before they parted ways in 2020. Their characters also had a brief romance on the show.

She shared with Grazia about their separation: “After some time apart, we realized that the relationship wasn’t benefiting either of us. We still care for and respect each other a lot. The breakup was amicable and not overly dramatic.”

She further expressed, “I struggle to keep my identity intact when I’m in a relationship. I value my independence, but I can also be quite susceptible.

I often find it easy to overlook my own sense of identity, and at times, I end up sacrificing my principles just to please others. This is why it’s crucial for me to carve out personal time.
