How much is the net worth of Holliday Grainger? It has been reported by authoritative sources that the size of her wealth is over $5 million, as of the data presented at the beginning of 2018. Television and film are the main sources of Grainger’s fortune.

In 2015, the actress was cast as a main in the film “Cinderella”, and in the film “Tulip Fever”.

Holliday Grainger Quotes

  • ‘The Borgias’ is quite good because it does stick quite steadfastly to historical fact, so a lot of people who are interested in the historical element will love watching it, but they were also a ridiculously dramatic family.
  • I’ve got a massive actor girl crush on Carey Mulligan, so I’d love to be buddies with her. She just oozes this joyful, natural innocence and always brings a nice emotional depth to her character.
  • I was so tiny when my parents split up that I can’t remember them ever being together. That was never an issue, as I guess I never went through the trauma of them splitting up.
  • I love the opportunity to do lots of different kinds of projects – independent films and big studio epics as well. I’d love to be able to do a mixture.
  • I enjoy flitting around between hair colours. I find it fascinating when people think I’m naturally blonde, as I’ve only been blonde for about two seconds. People pay more attention to you as a blonde; it’s also easier for people to assume you’re a ditsy young actress. Of course, I am a ditsy young actress – well, maybe not ditsy.
  • When you’re a child, you take things for granted. For instance, my mum didn’t have a lot of money, but I went to piano, ballet and gymnastics lessons, and tae kwon do.
  • Jack Thorne writes so well for messed-up teenage girls.
  • It’s always really surreal, being on a film set, but inside a beautiful, massive scene.
  • Long scenes of emotion are quite difficult – you’ve got to build up to them and make sure you’re in the right emotional space.
  • I’m very lucky, as I’ve never ever felt any pressure from any producer to lose weight, whereas a lot of actresses have.
  • I’m developing a little crush on Michael Fassbender. Really unoriginal.
  • I don’t really have any strategy for my career.
  • I don’t have any massive ambitions to be a movie star.
  • I’d love to do more independent films.
  • I’d like to continue acting as long as I enjoy it.
  • I seem to play a lot of troubled kids.
  • I come from a very loving, stable background where I’ve been persuaded to just be myself and anything is possible.
  • I auditioned for a musical, and I can’t sing. It was a kid’s film musical, not a stage show, so I thought I could get away with it.
  • I admire my mother for being a single mum. It’s ridiculously hard.
  • As much as I’d love to be a successful actor, the thought of being recognised in the street is petrifying.
  • True love, especially first love, can be so tumultuous and passionate that it feels like a violent journey.
  • When I was younger, I was always being told I had a period face, but ‘Bel Ami’ was my first shot at it.
  • To be able to analyze plays and novels is so relevant to acting.
  • You’ll always end up filling out a character. It might be with aspects of yourself.
  • I did a year at Leeds, studying English. They basically threw me out, because I was taking too much time off to act. So I transferred to the Open University, because I could do it all online. By that point, I had admitted to myself that I had the acting bug.
  • The media was completely influential in the rise and fall of Bonnie and Clyde.
