Jodie Comer has revealed she once burnt her eyelashes off while learning to smoke for a role.
The actress, 30, has portrayed several character who have smoked, including Kathy in The Bikeriders and Villanelle in Killing Eve.
Jodie posed in a figure-hugging gold dress on the cover of Vanity Fair, and was also interviewed by the publication.
Jodie told them: ‘Generally I’m quite good with not bringing it home. One thing I did with Kathy—which I will never do again, because I don’t smoke in real life—was that I was smoking a little bit at home.
‘My pet peeve is when you see people smoking onscreen who you can tell have never smoked a cigarette, and she was just constantly chain smoking.

‘I was like, I have to make sure that it looks like she eats these cigarettes for breakfast. And I went to light the cigarette on the gas hub and the flame singed my eyelashes.
‘So that’s one way I took Kathy home with me, which I learned the hard way.’

According to betting expert James Leyfield from Gambling.com, he explained: ‘Jodie Comer is the 6/4 favourite on specials betting sites to be the next female lead in a Bond movie’
Jodie is known for starring in the hit BBC spy thriller Killing Eve , while Irish actress Saoirse, 29, received an Oscar nomination for starring in the movie Atonement.
Fool Me One actress Michelle, 36, has been given the seal of approval by gambling experts following her success in Netflix ‘s new hit drama.
According to the Daily Express , betting expert James Leyfield from Gambling.com, explained: ‘Jodie Comer is the 6/4 favourite on specials betting sites to be the next female lead in a Bond movie.
‘Michelle, who is 5/2 to be the next Bond Girl, started out in soaps, starring as barmaid Tina McIntyre in Coronation Street for six years.’
Meanwhile, according to the Irish Mirror , Saoirse got the odds of 5/1 to bag the next Bond role as the female lead.
Gambling.com previously told MailOnline: ‘Michelle Keegan has recently announced herself on the world stage in Netflix’s Fool Me Once, in a starring role as grieving mother Maya Stern, who spends the series on a solo mission to investigate her husband’s death after appearing to see him on her nanny cam when he was presumed dead.
‘Michelle, who is 5/2 to be the next Bond Girl, started out in soaps, starring as barmaid Tina McIntyre in Coronation Street for six years.
‘That means she already knows how to perfect a martini – shaken, not stirred – but more than that, she could be an ideal MI6 colleague for Bond.’

The expert added: ‘Jodie Comer is the 6/4 favourite on specials betting sites to be the next female lead in a Bond movie.
‘The actress has had the perfect training ground in hit BBC spy thriller Killing Eve, for which she landed a Primetime Emmy Award for her superb portrayal of sociopathic assassin Villanelle.
‘She could be an ideal Bond Girl, but could be just as effective as the main villain in the next Bond movie.
‘The British actress cut her teeth in the likes of medical dramas Casualty and Holby City, as well as school drama Waterloo Road, before getting her big break as Villanelle.’
Bookies predictions have also been rife around who could play 007 himself, after Daniel Crag departed the role in 2021.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who has recently appeared to be bulking up for a role in Kraven The Hunter, reportedly underwent a screen test last year.
An insider told the Sun: ‘Aaron went for a screen test to be the next Bond in September and producers and Barbara loved him. He is now one of the front-runners.’
In October, an insider told DailyMail.com that Aaron is extremely close to landing the role, with Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan, 53, looking likely to helm the next film in the franchise.
The insider said: ‘Aaron Taylor-Johnson is currently the hot favorite to step into the iconic role, he’s the first choice for Barbara Broccoli – he is the one to beat.’

They added of Nolan: ‘He is extremely interested in doing something very different with the franchise. If he can get his way with producers, then he is all for it.’
It was previously reported that Nolan wanted to direct the next Bond film as a period piece set in the same as the original source material – something that director Quentin Tarantino had previously wanted to do with Casino Royale, but was turned down.
However, the insider adds: ‘Whether Nolan coming on board will affect the casting of Aaron Taylor-Johnson is currently a grey area – as he’s very particular with who he works with.’
Behind Aaron in the odds are James Norton at 5-2, Henry Cavill at 3-1 and Tom Hardy and Richard Madden at 7-1.
Coral’s John Hill said: ‘There has been a surge of support behind Aaron Taylor-Johnson in the last 24 hours in our next James Bond betting.
‘It’s clear that punters have made their minds up over who they think should replace Daniel Craig.’
