Rebecca is a Zürich-bred, London-based actor, writer, producer. A BIFA-qualifying film festival panelist, she is also co-founder of Cut + Roll Films, a film production company recently established alongside producer Alice Duke (Irresistible Studios) to create films that challenge views and spark debate.
As an actor, Rebecca’s screen credits include Juice (BBC), Flying (Blue Muse Productions), Moishe, (Midnight Runners), Hamdardi (Taba Productions), & more, with both the latter films - with Rebecca’s involvement - screening at the BFI during the London Film Festival ‘24.  Her stage credits include 9-month lead in London West End’s The War of the Worlds (Layered Reality), The Network, (National Theatre), Romeo + Juliet (Secret Cinema), The Unreturn of Lydia Osborn, (Summerhall, Edinburgh), which she co-wrote/associate produced & more. Up next, Rebecca will lead psychological thriller Drowning, with principal photography set for summer ‘25. 
 
As writer and producer, Rebecca is developing dark comedy thriller miniseries Dancing Through Time, as well as a psychological thriller semi-autobiographical feature Not Quiet Here. Both projects draw from real-life experiences in the legal and mental healthcare system, aiming to raise awareness and funds for PTSD recovery. The feature’s short film adaptation Drowning was awarded the semi-finalist place in the Sunday Shorts Film Festival Best Script competition, and is now in post-production with award-winning director Reiff Gaskell, producer Alice Duke, cinematographer Ola Mesmer, and Executive Producer Nicholas Pinnock. In partnership with PTSD UK, the film is being produced by Cut + Roll Films in collaboration with Silver Milk Productions, with full sponsorship by Lipsync Post House.
In 2019, Rebecca wrote, directed, produced and starred in Dawn of the Transmaton with Iconic British, an immersive show depicting a multi-planetary Al civilisation mourning humanity’s decline. She has since adapted the play into the feature film The Zen of AI, currently in script development.

 

Alongside Drowning, she is producing Scratching Post, written by BIFA-winning actor and writer Abigail Hardingham and directed by Oscar, BIFA and BAFTA longlisted director Louisa Connolly-Burnham - whose most recent film Sister Wives is currently streaming on Channel 4 - as well as The Front Seat with award-winning director Aella Jordan-Edge, and body horror Animal with writer/director Angelica Gayle as Executive Producer.
