Work for the the British actress has so far thrown up a wonderful variety of projects throughout a successful career - from starring opposite Jude Law in Hamlet on Broadway, to starring as the lead in historical drama Belle, or disrupting the world of beauty pageants with Misbehaviour. With jobs as exciting as these, it's little wonder that her work brings her such joy.
Her latest projects have seen her swap the silver screen for small, with roles in Apple TV's hit The Morning Show, alongside industry heavyweights Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, as well as HBO and BBC psychological thriller, The Girl Before.
For her next challenge, she enters the world of Disney, appearing alongside her old RADA classmate Tom Hiddleston in the Marvel Studios original series Loki. In it she plays the morally ambiguous and authoritative Ravonna Renslayer - another totally different character from the kind she's played before. So how does she choose which roles to go for?
"The best piece of career advice I've ever been given is probably to follow your instincts."
In the video above we caught up with Gugu at Soho Farmhouse and found out everything we don't know about her.
