If you had to choose your screen debut, you could do worse than playing the significant other of Idris Elba. And, Liz Priestley was just that fortunate. Liz co-stars in Concrete Cowboy, the most recent film from Netflix. It tells the story of a boy who meets up with the Fletcher Street Riding Club in Philadelphia and who rediscovers his father on horseback.

We talked with Liz about the new film, the difference in preparing for a stage performance vs film and whether she offered to act alongside her co-star should he ever get the job portraying a certain British secret agent who is also known as a prime number.
