Emily Swain is an Anglo-Irish actor whose career spans stage, screen, and international productions. A dual UK-Irish passport holder, she moves between the UK and Ibiza, Spain, bringing a rich blend of Celtic charm and on-screen intensity to her work.

Trained at The Academy of Live & Recorded Arts (ALRA) in London, she also studied in Oxford, The Sorbonne in Paris (speaking fluent French). As part of the Almeida Theatre Company, Emily performed in the multi-award-winning 'King Charles III', which transferred to the West End and toured nationally and internationally to Sydney Theatre Company.

On screen, she starred as Sue in the Royal Television Society (RTS South) award-winning 'What About Me' and earned a Best Supporting Actress nomination for Hulu's Bite Size Halloween 'The Heritage'. She has appeared on screen with legends like Sir Michael Caine and Bollywood's Shah Rukh Khan.

Born to veteran RSC, Royal National Theatre and screen actors Cherry Morris and Mike Murray, Emily's international roots run deep-conceived on Australia's Sunshine Coast while her father starred as King Arthur in Camelot, she later returned for a two-month engagement, calling it a "homecoming."

A true storyteller at heart, she is also an award-winning filmmaker and writer, with work showcased at Independent Shorts, Los Angeles' Indie Shorts Fest, London's East End Film Festival, Bloomsday Dublin and IFTA-affiliated festivals. Her feature project The Confessional (in its award-winning short form The Shriving) was dedicated to the Syrian families she met while filming inside refugee camps in Lebanon's Beqaa Valley.

Beyond acting and filmmaking, Emily's life has been anything but ordinary-she has interviewed The Princess Royal at Buckingham Palace, scaled the world's largest aircraft carriers, and played a cherished role in securing the release of a human rights activist in Southeast Asia.

Often described as "a charming Celtic queen stroking the dog with one hand and shooting the neighbor with the other ... velvet with steel," Emily is only getting started. With a career already rich in depth and adventure, she's beyond excited to see what the next 40 years will bring.
