Alison King has been a familiar face on the popular soap opera Coronation Street since 2006, playing the role of feisty businesswoman Carla Connor. But now, the talented actress has confirmed that she will be taking on a brand new role outside of the beloved cobbled streets.
According to writer Ian Hodges' post on LinkedIn, Alison will be appearing on the big screen in the upcoming film Dirty Truckers. Excitement is already brewing as Alison herself commented on the post, expressing her eagerness to get the project going.
In the film, Alison will be playing the character of Ella and will be sharing the screen with acclaimed actors such as Ricky Tomlinson and retired boxer Joe Egan. The movie's synopsis promises a thrilling story of unemployed truck drivers in the 1980s who resort to illegal activities, risking their livelihoods and freedom in the process.
Despite her busy schedule on Coronation Street, Alison has managed to fit in filming for her role in Dirty Truckers. This comes as no surprise, considering the actress's talent and versatility.
Alison first joined Coronation Street as Carla in 2006, taking a brief break in 2012 before returning to the role a year later. Currently, her character is at the center of a major storyline as she grapples with her feelings for DS Lisa Swain.
Since Swain's arrival in Weatherfield, the two have grown to become close friends. But as their relationship deepens, there are hints that it could turn romantic. Fans of the show are eagerly anticipating what's in store for these two dynamic characters.
Don't forget to tune in to Coronation Street on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 (7am on ITVX) to catch Alison in action.
