The fresh-faced Newmark may have gotten her start in the world of high fashion, but don't you dare call her a model-turned-actor. "I want to obliterate the 'model-turned-actor' term," she said, according to IMDb. "That's not in an arrogant way, it's just that it took a lot for me to train at drama school."

Her prickliness about the hyphenate isn't unearned. Newmark started out in the theatre world at 14 making costumes for the National Youth Theatre. She then went to spend two years in Deptford at the Albany Theatre Company, and finally on to the prestigious East 15 Acting School in Loughton, Essex, from which she graduated in 2016.

With a pedigree like that, it's no surprise that Hollywood soon came calling to cast her in the role of Ryenne in the modern Wizard of Oz prequel Emerald City. The bold series only ran for one season, but its lukewarm reception didn't slow Newmark's career one bit.
