Kiwi actress, Sarah Peirse is playing Dr Twik in the Mortal Engines film.
Peirse has had a very long association with Peter Jackson productions, going back to Heavenly Creatures in which she played the ill fated mother. She's had a few parts in the Hobbit trilogy.
She's actually had a pretty decent go of a career as an actress having made a name for herself in Vincent Ward's The Navigator and having played many roles on stage and on NZ and Australian TV shows.
In Mortal Engines Dr Twix is a scientist in the Guild of Engineers that is responsible for the reanimation of stalkers / turning humans into stalkers and keeping an eye of Shrike.
She's faithful to the Mayor of London, Magnus Chrome.
We imagine this is the first time Sarah has been cast after a character named for a chocolate bar!
