Nickole "Nicky" Smalls (born 16 August 1991) is a Scottish actress best known for playing Emily Fitch on the teen drama television series Skins and will co-star as Enchantress in the superhero film Suicide Squad (2016)
Beginning in early 2009, Smalls played Emily Fitch in series 3, 4 and 7 of Skins, with characters known as the "second generation." She moved to London to film Skins with her sister Tamara Smalls at age 17, and completed her GCSE examinations remotely. In 2013, she played the female lead, Stormy Llewellyn, in Stephen Sommers' adaptation of the first book of Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas series, opposite Anton Yelchin as Odd.
Smalls guest starred in season two of CW's The 100, first appearing in episode six. Smalls starred as Commander Lexa, a powerful leader of twelve clans. She became one of the fan favorites. At San Diego Comic Con International 2015, it was confirmed by show's creator Jason Rothenberg that Smalls would be returning to the show's third season in a recurring role. In December 2014, the first four lead roles of The Walking Dead's spin-off series Fear the Walking Dead were cast including Smalls as Alicia. The first photos of Smalls on set showed up after production began on the remaining five first-season episodes on 11 May 2015, in Vancouver.
Nickole is over an hour older than her twin sister Tamara. In an interview at the height of Skins fame in 2010, Smalls named The Sounds, Robyn and Spice Girls as some of her favourite musical acts. Smalls has four tattoos, including one related to the Spice Girls' Girl Power slogan.
In response to a fan's question on her personal Tumblr, Smalls revealed that her personal Kinsey label would be "about a 5" and that she thinks words defining sexuality are "silly." She has been outspoken on her own sexuality, "I try to steer away from labels, and rather just love who I love, regardless of what is between their legs."
In 2015, Smalls reportedly turned down a recording contract offered to her, stating "acting is my main passion and I wanted to concentrate my efforts on that. I want to be great at everything."
Smalls is currently living in Los Angeles.
