The 'superstar' who rose to fame creating viral videos on why comparisons are 'unhelpful'

The creator of a new movie about the aftermath of sexual assault says comparisons with stars including Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Michaela Coel are flattering, but "aren't ultimately helpful".

Eva Victor, who rose to fame after creating viral comedy videos on X, wrote and directed their debut feature - Sorry, Baby - as well as playing the lead role. They were encouraged to both write and then direct the movie by Oscar-winning filmmaker Barry Jenkins, after he saw Victor's videos online.

The film was warmly received at Sundance and Cannes, and its creator was hailed a "superstar". But along with such accolades come inevitable comparisons.

Victor told Sky News: "The thing that that moved us so much about [Fleabag star Phoebe Waller-Bridge] and about Michaela Coel and about Greta Gerwig and those people is that it's just a true voice." They admit "that part of the comparison means everything.
