The British actress Sophie Winkleman has not had an easy time in Hollywood. Shortly after her September 2009 wedding to Lord Frederick Windsor, Sophie. best known as Big Suze in the BBC series, Peep Show, moved to Hollywood to begin work on a situation comedy, 100 Questions, playing Charlotte Payne, a woman who signs up with a dating service to meet men. NBC stopped production after only six episodes. The show failed to gather viewer support when NBC televised the show in the summer of 2010.
Now Sophie has netted a new role, in a forthcoming HBO series, Luck, which will star Dustin Hoffman and Nick Nolte. HBO announced in July that the series' first season will consist of the pilot and seven to nine weekly episodes.
Luck is described as a "cutting-edge depiction of life on the racetrack." The pilot was filmed earlier this year at the Santa Anita race track. Filming for the series begins this fall and will continue into early next year.
Lord Frederick was able to get a transfer to J.P. Morgan's Los Angeles office. They have rented a home off Sunset Boulevard.
