Sophie from 'The Holiday' recreates Cameron Diaz scenes in TikTok – Insider

The actor who played Jude Law’s daughter in the 2006 Christmas classic “The Holiday” shared a video of herself going back to the village the movie was filmed.
Miffy Englefield was six years old when she played the role of Sophie in the movie, which also starred Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, and Jack Black.
The actor, now 24, posted the TikTok clip on December 24, showing her walking through the town of Shere in Surrey, England, with her father and two-year-old daughter, and pointing out the places featured in the movie. 
Englefield showed her followers a store that she said was featured in an unreleased scene and went to a local museum that included facts about the movie. 
She also recreated iconic scenes from “The Holiday,” running across the same bridge that Diaz did at the end of the movie, and going for lunch at the White Horse pub, where Diaz’s character meets Law’s character for a date.
 
The video, which was captioned “a trip down memory lane,” received over 640,000 views. Many viewers commented that seeing Englefield as an adult with a small daughter made them “feel old,” and expressed their fondness for the movie, with many saying they had watched it that day. 
Englefield began acting to help her family financially, she told Vulture in 2020, adding that not long before filming started they had been homeless. She hasn’t acted in anything since her early teens.
In a 2019 Instagram story, Englefield, who now has black hair and tattoos, said that she struggled to find acting gigs because of her new look, People reported.
“As an adult, I’ve found that casting directors aren’t overly seeking people who ‘look like me’ to play roles, even though body modifications aren’t rare these days and are the most common it has ever been,” she said in the Instagram post, according to the outlet.
Englefield has almost 50,000 of followers on TikTok, where she typically shares her life in West Sussex, England, with her partner and daughter, Frankie.
The 24-year-old told The New York Times that Law and Diaz spent a lot of time with her and her on-screen sister, Emma Pritchard, and gifted them denim jackets emblazoned with their names after the movie wrapped.
“They made all this time for these two little kids running around,” she told The Times earlier this month. “Jude had so much time for us. He was always giving me tips about acting.”
