Sheridan Smith starting own production company

OHMYGOSSIP — Sheridan Smith is starting her own production company.
The 37-year-old actress has “lots of ideas going forward” and is looking forward to pursuing the plans she “really wants to do”.
Speaking to The i newspaper, she said: “I’m in the process of setting up my own production company.
“I’ve got a lot of ideas going forward. It’s just so empowering to go and take control a bit more. To try and do things I really want to do and try and be a bit more grown up nowadays.”
Although the ‘Mrs. Biggs’ star has been “out of the TV game” for a while, she is set to star in upcoming ITV drama ‘Cleaning Up’, and admitted that she feels the industry has changed in a positive way.
She explained: “I’ve been out of the TV game for a couple of years and the scripts that I’m booked to do in 2019.
“I can see that things are changing for the better in every way. There are more working class female-driven roles.”
Sheridan’s new series follows a mum battling a gambling addiction who works as a cleaner at a brokerage firm and attempts to clear her debts by selling insider trading tips.
And the ‘Gavin and Stacey’ actress loves the “working class-ness” of the show.
She said: “I loved the working class-ness of it. I used to know people who went to the bingo.
“These are the kind of people I would naturally be attracted to and want to be around so that’s what I enjoyed the most.”
