Sophia Myles Talks Mister Foe, Unsexy Sex Scenes

For English beauty Sophia Myles, 2006 represented a sort of coming-out party, with the period piece romance Tristan & Isolde and the vampire-and-werewolf action sequel Underworld: Evolution releasing within a week of one another, and a plum role in Terry Zwigoff’s Art School Confidential following five months later. Myles’ latest film is writer-director David Mackenzie’s Mister Foe, in which she stars opposite Jamie Bell as Kate Breck, a middle-management hotel employee who enters into a warped relationship with a mixed-up kid, Hallam, who starts spying on her because she reminds him of his dead mother. I spoke with Myles recently about working with a pervy, adult Billy Elliot, Mackenzie’s deft touch with sex, and fan reaction to the recently canceled CBS vampire drama Moonlight.
