Michelle Keegan's Fool Me Once co-star Emmett J. Scanlan has revealed what the actress is really like off-screen. Former Hollyoaks star Emmett starred alongside ex-Corrie star Michelle on the Netflix thriller based on a novel by Harlan Coben.
The eight-part series has proved a massive hit with viewers, with people raving about the performances by Michelle, 36, and Emmett, 44.
On Wednesday 10 January, Emmett, appeared on ITV's Lorraine to talk about the show, which has achieved massive worldwide success. During his chat with Lorraine Kelly, Emmett heaped praise on his co-star, Michelle, who played the lead protagonist, Maya Stern, in the gripping series. Emmett, who played Maya's pal Shane Tessier, told Lorraine: “Michelle is insanely collaborative, really fun on and off set, beautiful on and off set, hugely talented.
"She's a shining example of what a leading lady should be, or just what a leading actor should be." He continued: "She brought so much positivity. Just loved to play, loved to dance, loved to find things in the moment. I can’t speak highly enough of her.
She's great." Michelle's star has only risen with the release of Fool Me Once, and the actress is said to have caught the eye of 'huge casting directors' in America. The ex-Coronation Street star has been celebrating the series' worldwide success after the show reached number one in the world and across 60 countries on Netflix, despite only being released on 1 January. Michelle took to Instagram to thank viewers and share her disbelief at how popular Fool Me Once has been.
