Negga was born in 1981 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia,[5] to an Irish mother, Nora, and an Ethiopian father.[6][7] Her parents met while working at a hospital in Ethiopia; her mother was a nurse and her father was a doctor.[8] Negga, an only child, lived in the country until she was four. Her father died in a car accident when she was seven.[9] She grew up in Limerick, Ireland,[10] until moving to London, England for secondary school.[11][12][13]
Negga studied at the Samuel Beckett Centre at Trinity College Dublin,[14] graduating with a BA in Acting Studies.[9]
Career
2004–2012: Early roles
Negga made her screen debut in the Irish film Capital Letters (2004), playing the lead role of Taiwo. She went on to play the lead role of Mary in Isolation the following year. Prior to this, she had been working mostly in theatre.[14] After seeing Negga act, director Neil Jordan changed the script to Breakfast on Pluto so that she could appear in the movie.[9] She has also starred in Colour Me Kubrick (2005), with John Malkovich, and the short films The Four Horsemen, 3-Minute 4-Play and Stars.[citation needed]
On television, Negga has appeared in Doctors, Criminal Justice and the Irish series Love Is the Drug. She played the lead role of Doris "Sid" Siddiqi in the BBC Three series Personal Affairs, alongside Laura Aikman, Annabel Scholey and Maimie McCoy.[15] Negga portrayed Rosie in the first two series of RTÉ's Love/Hate.[16] Negga appeared as Dame Shirley Bassey in the BBC production Shirley in 2011 and won the IFTA Award for Best Actress (Television) for her performance. Her theatre work includes roles in Duck, Titus Andronicus and Lay Me Down Softly.[17] As of 2007, she began working with the Irish theatrical group Pan Pan Theatre. In 2010, she played Ophelia in the National Theatre's production of Hamlet. She also provided voice acting in the video game Dark Souls II, playing Shanalotte, otherwise known as "the Emerald Herald".
2013–2019: Career expansion
In 2013, it was announced that Negga had been booked for a recurring role as Raina on the American TV series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.[18][19] She appeared in 17 episodes of the programme.[16] She filmed scenes for Steve McQueen's Oscar-winning biographical drama 12 Years a Slave (2013), but her role was ultimately cut from the movie.[20] In March 2015, Negga was cast in the role of Tulip O'Hare in AMC fantasy drama series Preacher, which debuted the following year.[21]
Negga played Prince Hamlet in the Gate Theatre's 2018 production (directed by Yaël Farber) of Hamlet[25][26] (Having a woman play the role of Prince Hamlet although depicted as a man in the play is a precedent established in Dublin by Fanny Furnival in 1741).[27] Negga reprised the role of Hamlet to equal acclaim at St. Ann's Warehouse in spring 2020.[28][29] In February 2021, it was announced that Negga will star in and executive produce a limited drama series about legendary Jazz age performer and civil rights activist Josephine Baker.[30]

The two lived together in London's Primrose Hill.[16][38] The couple were in a relationship for six years; however, Negga has pointed out that it took the press years to learn of the break-up, which was first reported in April 2018.[39][40] Negga appeared opposite Cooper in AMC'sPreacher, in which the pair portrayed lovers, and has said that they are "best friends".[40]
