As a strong advocate for women’s rights and empowerment, Emily Atack‘s decision to star in Rivals is a bold and inspiring move. Her journey, marked by years of online harassment, has only strengthened her resolve to reclaim her narrative and challenge societal norms surrounding women’s bodies and sexuality.
Emily Atack recently discussed her choice to appear in the provocative television show “Rivals,” a move she made after experiencing numerous instances of online harassment for several years.
The well-known actor from Channel 4’s The Inbetweeners has lately presented a documentary called “Emily Atack: Is This Acceptable?”, where she explored the alarmingly high instances of online sexual harassment that women experience nowadays.
Currently, she’s featured in the eagerly awaited Disney Plus version of Jilly Cooper’s passionate novel Rivals, leading TopMob to wonder if any past apprehensions might have influenced her decision to accept the part.
Attack replied: “Regardless of what you choose, it seems like you can’t win. If you decide to keep your clothing on, you’re seen as a chaste nun, but if you remove your clothing, you’re labeled as promiscuous.
If a character I’m portraying necessitates nudity for the storyline and it aligns with my role, ensuring safety, then I feel fully committed in my acting career.
It seems I’ve discovered that it’s not my actions that require adjustment, but rather those of others. I’ve come to reclaim the story that once belonged to me – my identity, my body, and my sexuality.
“These kinds of roles are fun. I’m still young and it’s OK to feel liberated. I enjoy what I do.”
She added: “And it’s Jilly Cooper – it’s an honour to do it!”
In the narrative, Sarah Stratton, portrayed by Actress Attack, takes on the role of the wife to the Deputy Prime Minister, played by Rufus Jones. Throughout the book, she appears in several significant scenes, such as a lively, albeit unconventional, game of tennis against another prominent character – all while bare.
In sharing about portraying that particular scene on-screen, Attack clarified, “From the start, we all understood that there might be explicit content involving nudity and intimate scenes. So, it was clear what to expect.
I found it crucial to accurately portray the sexual elements and characters, as well as the iconic tennis scene, hence my focus on getting it spot-on.
“It was a closed set. I felt very safe, and I had a great spray tan.”
