Back in June last year, she gave a rare interview, as she geared up to release her first film in over five years.

Best known for her role as Donna Hayward in the '90s cult television series Twin Peaks, Boyle gave a refreshingly frank interview, saying that she wasn't afraid 'to look like s***' in the new film.
'It was a commitment to myself to go in with no vanity,' she says of the part. 'I was like, "Look, I'm going to look like s****. Make me look even crappier than I already would." It was selfishly, again, it was like being back in acting class.'
The actress is rumoured to have had plastic surgery over the years, often spotted out with a dramatically different look to how she is remembered on screen.
But the star says: 'I'm an actress so it's a stretch to become that selfless. [Laughs] Hello! I know! We love attention. But I was like, "Let's be raw and absolutely 100 percent not self-involved." It was a little bit of work to be that mindless and focus completely on another human being.'
