Career

Movies and television

At the age of nine, Hall made her professional debut as young Sophy in her father's television adaptation of Mary Wesley's The Camomile Lawn in 1992. In 2006, she made her feature film debut as Rebecca Epstein in the film adaptation of David Nicholls' Starter for Ten. She made her breakthrough as Sarah Borden in Christopher Nolan's film The Prestige (2006). In 2007, she starred in Stephen Poliakoff's Joe's Palace, as well as in several other television films, including Wide Sargasso Sea and Rubberheart.

Hall rose to prominence after appearing as one of the title characters, Vicky, in Woody Allen's film Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008). Her performance received positive feedback, and she was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actress - Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. In 2008, she played the girlfriend of Michael Sheen's David Frost in Ron Howard's historical drama Frost/Nixon. The following year, she starred in Dorian Gray, a British fantasy-horror film based on Oscar Wilde's 1890 novel The Picture of Dorian Gray.

Following a small role in the indie film Please Give, Hall starred alongside Ben Affleck and Jon Hamm in Ben Affleck's crime drama The Town (2010). She won the British Academy Television Award for Best Supporting Actress in June 2010 for her performance as Paula Garland in the 2009 Channel 4 film Red Riding: In the Year of Our Lord 1974. The following year, in September 2011, she starred as the female lead in the British ghost film The Awakening.

In 2012, she played Beth Raymer in the comedy-drama film Lay the Favourite, which was based on Raymer's memoir of the same name; one reviewer said she "plays Raymer as an endearing force of nature who somehow manages to survive in a dangerous world through sheer force of character." She then starred opposite Benedict Cumberbatch in the BBC/HBO/VRT production Parade's End (2012), for which she received a BAFTA Television Award nomination for Best Actress. Hall took over Jessica Chastain's role as Maya Hansen in the superhero film Iron Man 3 in 2013. She starred in the political thriller Closed Circuit the same year (2013).

In Professor Marston and the Wonder Women, she portrayed Elizabeth Holloway Marston, a real-life psychologist who inspired Wonder Woman. The following year, Hall joined the cast of Woody Allen's A Rainy Day in New York. After re-reading literature pertaining to the sexual abuse allegation against Woody Allen, Hall donated her salary to Time's Up in January 2018, stating: "Not only do I see how complicated this situation is, but I also see how my actions have silenced and dismissed another woman. I regret this decision and would not make it again." In Mirai, Hall provided the English dub for the character Mother (2018).

Beginning in the 2020s, Hall starred in and co-executive produced The Night House, a well-received horror-thriller that was released in 2021.

Stage

Hall made her professional stage debut as Vivie in her father's production of Mrs Warren's Profession at the Strand Theatre in London in 2002. Her "admirable" and "accomplished" performance earned her the Ian Charleson Award in 2003.

Hall's father celebrated 50 years as a theatre director in 2003 by staging a season of five plays at Bath's Theatre Royal. Hall appeared in two of these plays, as Rosalind in her father's production of As You Like It, which earned her a second Charleson nomination, and as Thea Sharrock in her revival of D. H. Lawrence's The Fight for Barbara. In 2004, Hall appeared in three plays at the Theatre Royal Bath for the Peter Hall Company, two of which were directed by her father: Man and Superman, in which she played Ann, and Galileo's Daughter, in which she played Sister Maria Celeste. Sharrock directed the third production, Molière's Don Juan, in which she played Elvira.

In 2010-11, she played Viola in her father's production of Twelfth Night at London's National Theatre.

Hall made her Broadway debut in Sophie Treadwell's expressionistic play Machinal in 2013. The Roundabout Theater production, directed by Lyndsey Turner, began previews on December 20, 2013, with the official opening at the American Airlines Theatre on January 16, 2014.

Private life

Despite Hall's denials, there was intense media speculation in 2010 about an affair between Hall and director Sam Mendes, who was married to Kate Winslet at the time. From 2011 to 2013, Hall and Mendes were in a relationship.

Hall met actor Morgan Spector in 2014 while co-starring in a Broadway production. They tied the knot in 2015. In 2018, their first child was born.
