GILLIAN ANDERSON, WEBBY BEST ACTRESS
Gillian Anderson got her big break playing Dana Scully in The X-Files, but since then she’s moved on from stalking the paranormal to hunting down a serial killer in The Fall (trailer above), which originally ran on BBC Two and was then scooped up by Netflix in 2013, an early win for online streaming.
Anderson was born in Chicago and spent nine years living in London before moving back to the States, which likely explains why she can nail both English and American accents.
Sorry to all the X-Files fans out there, but Anderson has said that the “mysterious” Stella Gibson is her favourite character to play. Maybe we’re biased, but she’s also our favourite character to watch: Come on, she can basically cut someone in half with her stare.
