Hannah Margetson is an English actor from South East London, with Celtic, Jewish, and Scandinavian heritage. She made her feature film debut as Cora Fisher in Hellboy: The Crooked Man (2024).
Movement & ACTING reel
Hannah is a skilled performer known for expressive movement and physical intensity. Proficient in stunts, horse riding, wire work, and motion capture, she thrives in dynamic, physically demanding roles—particularly those that are gritty and emotionally complex.
Trained at AFUK circus school in Copenhagen, specialising in aerial rope and acrobatics, she also studied Physical, Contemporary, and European Theatre at East 15 Acting School and Rose Bruford College.
Her background in physical theatre and circus deeply informs her screen work, where she brings precision, power, and emotional nuance to her performances. Hannah is especially drawn to exploring how movement connects to emotions stored in the body, using physical expression as a bridge to psychological depth.
She continues to refine her craft daily, drawing inspiration from Grotowski and other movement-based European practitioners.
