Jessica Brown Findlay's childhood and education

Since an early age, Jessica had her eyes set on becoming a ballerina. She even managed to persuade her parents into helping her pursue ballet as a profession.

The actress underwent ballet training at the Associates of the Royal Ballet as well as the National Youth Ballet. Afterwards, she performed for a single summer season alongside the Kirov Ballet. After this, Brown joined the Furze Platt Senior School in Maidenhead for her formal education.

Jessica's ballet dream was unfortunately cut short when she developed ankle complications during her third year of study at the Arts Educational School in Hertfordshire. The complications forced her to undergo three operations, the last of which was unsuccessful.

Not willing to give up on art, the actress enrolled at the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design for a course in Fine Art.

Acting career

Jessica's first major acting role came in 2011 when she was cast as Emilia Doyle in the 2011 British comedy Albatross. The film tells the story of a young aspiring writer who enters the lives of the members of a dysfunctional family.

Afterwards, the actress landed a role in a drama-comedy television series known as Misfits. She played the role of a mystical religious girl who could convince just about anyone to leave their aberrant behavior. However, her character only lasted two episodes.

After being cast into the limelight for her role in Albatross, Jessica landed what is probably her biggest role to date, that of Lady Sybil Crawley in the ITV series Downton Abbey.

Why did Jessica Brown Findlay leave Downton? She became the first major cast member to leave the show after her character passed away due to pre-eclampsia in season 3. Nevertheless, the actress had hinted from the beginning that she would only be part of the show for three years, after which she would leave.

After leaving Downton, the actress appeared in an episode of Black Mirror playing the role of Abi. The episode's main storyline revolved around a dystopian future in which people can only escape captivity by auditioning in front of reality television judges.

Afterwards, the actress landed a role in a miniseries titled Labyrinth, and the film Not Another Happy Ending. The former is based on a Kate Mosse novel by the same name. In 2014, Jessica appeared in the 2014 film adaptation of Winter's Tale alongside Russell Crowe and Colin Farrell.

In 2015, the actress was cast to play Shelly in a remake of The Crow. She then landed a role as Alice Aldridge, an emotionally-conflicted woman in The Outcast.

Besides film and television acting, Jessica has also appeared in a few stage plays. These include the 2015 adaptation of The Oresteia as well as the critically-acclaimed 2016 production of Hamlet at London's Almeida Theatre.
