Felicity Jones stars alongside Adrien Brody in the tale of Holocaust surviors who come to America. She tells Aoife Barry about her role in the widely-praised film

Felicity Jones, 41, is an actor and producer who made her professional debut aged 12 in the 1996 TV drama The Treasure Seekers. Since then, she’s played Jane Hawking in The Theory of Everything — which earned her Golden Globe, BAFTA and Oscar nominations — as well US Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in On the Basis of Sex.

Brady Corbet, director of critically acclaimed film "The Brutalist," is responding to criticism of his Golden Globe winning film after it was revealed artificial intelligence was used in the production to "perfect" the actors' accents.

"The Brutalist" is expected to be a front-runner in the Oscar race, which kicks off Thursday when the nominees are announced.

"Adrien and Felicity’s performances are completely their own," says Corbet, after details emerged on how AI technology was used in the editing of the actors' scenes spoken in Hungarian.
