Jenna Coleman Net Worth 2023:

Early Life:

Jenna-Louise Coleman was born on the 27th of April 1986, in Blackpool England. She is the daughter of mother Karen Coleman and father Keith Coleman. Her father had a very traditional occupation as a joiner and fitter of bar and restaurant interiors. Coleman has an older brother named Ben, a joiner, who shares the same occupation as their dad. It’s almost like her parents knew that she was going to be special from birth because her grandmother named her after the character of Jenna Wade from the American television series called Dallas. Jenna attended Arnold School in Blackpool, where she was what they refer to in England as a “head girl”, she was the class president, valedictorian, and perfect type, just basically she was a model student.

Early Career:

Jenna’s acting career started pretty early with a small role as a bridesmaid in ‘Summer Holiday in 1996.’ She was 10 years old and still in primary school at that time. While at school she was a member of the theater company In Yer Space, with whom she performed in the play Edinburgh Festival. She won an Award for her performance and the play also received positive reviews.  Jenna was offered to study English at the University of York but turned it down in order to accept the role of Jasmine Thomas in the soap opera entitled Emmerdale. This girl was always an overachiever from all the way back to her high school career.  Coleman’s four-year run on Emmerdale as Jasmine Thomas 05 to 09 made her a pretty big star and a very unclaimed one at that. This outstanding role landed her a couple of award nominations including the British Soap Awards in 07 where she was nominated for the Best New Commer Award. At the 09 British Soap Awards, she received Best Actress and Best Dramatic Performance Award nominations.  One of the biggest testaments to an actor or actress’s popularity and talent hitting a new level once they get that call to be in a superhero movie which is exactly what happened with Jenna Coleman. She landed a brief role of Connie in the Marvel Flick Captain America: The First Avenger in 2011.  Although Jenna never appeared in another Marvel flick, many fans do feel like it was a missed opportunity, especially given the fact that there is still an open storyline between her character Connie and the winter soldier Bucky.  Despite her appearance in the 2016 film Me Before You, Jenna has not had any major motion picture roles as for as film goes. That makes a lot of sense because after her appearance in Captain America is when she started becoming a mainstay in the world of television. 

Breakthrough:

On the 21st of March 2012 Doctor Who producer Stephen confirmed that Coleman would play the companion of the 11th Doctor also played by Matt Smith. The producer chose her for the role because she worked best alongside Smith and could talk faster than he could.  Jenna auditioned for the role in secret under the pretense of auditioning for Men on Waves. She played the role of Clara Oswald in 38 episodes which spanned several seasons. Many people consider that her biggest opportunity to display her versatility as an actress came in 2016 when she was offered to essay the role of British Queen Victoria in the historical ITV series Victoria. Jenna was transparent about the fact she was not fully informed about Victorian history.  In 2020 Coleman was selected for the role of Marie-Andrée Leclerc in the Netflix and BBC drama The Serpent which is the dramatization of the life of convicted killer Charles Chabon.

Other Ventures:

Outside of TV and film, Jenna has also developed quite a fan base for her voice acting for the video game series Xenoblade Chronicles in 2010. Nine years after its original English release Coleman reprised her role as Princess Melia Antiqua in the video game Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition. That features a brand new epilogue taking place after the main story. She returned as Melia in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 in 2022 where she is depicted as the Queen of Cavi’s nation.  In May of 2021 Coleman was named to play the main role of Johanna Constantine in the fantasy drama series The Sandman. The actress also has done several stage works including Jack and the Beanstalk (2009), All My Sons (2019), A Separate Peace (2020), and some more.  

Personal Life:

Jenna Coleman dated an actor named Richard Madden of Game Of Thrones in 2011. They were labeled as a powerful couple by the media as both of them were portraying powerful roles on TV at the time they started dating. Later in early 2016 the two broke up and started focusing on their actions.  In 2015 Coleman started dating British actor Tom Hughes who appears as Prince Albert, her on-screen husband in the acclaimed TV series Victoria. The two first met on the sets of Dancing On the Edge but they kept their relationship under wraps for almost a year. There have been rumors that the two are engaged but there hasn’t been any official report.
