Hope Hopkinson

She has worked on the Marketing team at Picturehouse Cinemas since 2022, heading up the social strategy & management as well as working on Sundance Film Festival London and Picturehouse Create. She’s a graduate in Philosophy and worked as a Culture & Lifestyle editor at The Cherwell, as well as previously spending time as a freelance writer & social media manager.

As part of her work at Picturehouse she hosts screenings and Q&As, as well as interviewing filmmakers for The Love of Cinema Podcast, including Andrea Arnold, Jordan Peele, Willem Dafoe, Joshua Oppenheimer, Robert Eggers, Pamela Anderson & more.
