Lucy Boynton
NYLON|May 2017 - The Young Hollywood Issue

When we encounter Lucy Boynton for the first time outside a Hollywood photo studio, she apologizes with the rarified grace you’d expect from a British ingenue. The 23-year-old actress is rushing off to a movie premiere and has to postpone our interview. It’s the kind of excuse only a star of a certain caliber gets to make. And after her breakout role in the delightful musical Sing Street, and an upcoming part in Kenneth Branagh’s star-studded Murder on the Orient Express, something tells us that Boynton is about to start using it a lot more often.

FAMILY VACATION:

Boynton’s parents are both travel writers, which let her see the world at an early age. “All of our family holidays were always work trips for my parents, so my sister and I would sit somewhere or find a kids’ club while my parents would be interviewing people. Now that I travel as well, we’re all in different places at different times, so there’s a lot of Skypeing that happens.”
