The English actor, 29, cut a stylish figure at BFI Southbank in a white pussybow shirt paired with a black jumper and trousers.
Emma - who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns - was joined by series creator Charlie Brooker as they posed for snaps on the red carpet. The Crown star appears in episode three of the new series, titled Hotel Reverie, alongside Issa Rae . The pair play A-list actors appearing in a remake of a vintage Hollywood classic - but there's a twist.
Series seven also includes a sequel to season four's fan-favourite episode USS Callister, which sees a video game programmer invent a simulated reality where he's captain of a spacecraft with his co-workers as his crew.
