As her costars crowded the premiere carpet around her, Alisha admitted it hasn’t become any easier to accept the surreal glitz and glam of her new star-studded life.
She shared: “I can’t actually believe that I’ve worked with such incredible actors, it all seems like a dream to me.
“Seeing fans…that’s absolutely crazy. When people spot me, I get shocked! Like’ ‘Are they talking about me?’ I get super confused. I don’t know if that will ever sink in.
“Being on set after Matilda, I’m definitely more comfortable but it will always be so surreal and incredible and I’ll always be so grateful for the opportunities that I’ve gotten.”
