Get to Know 'Foundation' Star Leah Harvey with These 10 Fun Facts (Exclusive)

Leah Harvey is one of the stars of the new Apple TV+ series Foundation, which is quickly gaining a big fanbase!

The new series, based on the award-winning novels by Isaac Asimov, chronicles a band of exiles on their monumental journey to save humanity and rebuild civilization amid the fall of the Galactic Empire.

We caught up with Leah to learn more about them. Check out 10 Fun Facts below!

  1. Hands down, my favorite meal is spaghetti bolognese. I will not be swayed!
  2. I use my longboard to get everywhere, unless it’s raining. In the summer, walking is a rarity for me.
  3. I love tap dancing. When I’m waiting for a bus or train, I tend to break into a little routine to pass the time. Of course, then I remember there’s other people waiting, but it usually puts a smile on their faces… either that or they think I’m a bit odd. I don’t mind, either way!
  4. I’m a songwriter as well as an actor and hope to release an album one day.
  5. I hate walking on wet grass. So gross!

  1. I went to Brampton Manor Academy, before it became the “Eton of East London.” I’m super proud of how far the school has come!
  2. My current fastest time for solving a Rubik’s cube is 45 seconds. I’m trying to get faster.
  3. My favorite film is Hancock and my favorite book is Wuthering Heights.
  4. When I was 16, we discovered I had an accessory navicular bone and had to get it surgically removed. Basically, I had an extra bone in my foot which dislocated when I twisted my ankle two days before starting a dance course. Really bad timing! Apparently I have a few more extra bones, but they’re staying put…for now…I hope!
  5. I love music and play lots of instruments. Violin was my first love. My mother and grandmother also play. Most recently, I picked up the saxophone; still working on that, but only when there’s no one in the house (its pretty loud).

Make sure to watch Leah in Foundation. The first three episodes are streaming now on Apple TV+ and new ones debut on Fridays.
