Already massively accomplished, Seyfried spun a 180 mid-career with her unexpected and brilliant portrayal of biotech fraudster Elizabeth Holmes in The Dropout: proving herself as one of the most watchable character actors of her generation. In conversation with James Norton , Seyfriedstars on the cover of Heroine 16 and reflects on the opportunities that propelled her to this point.
