Hayley’s parents separated when she was young, and she would grow closer to her mother whom she spent more time with growing up. She attended Sion-Manning Roman Catholic Girls’ School and then took A-levels at the London Oratory School. She was later offered entry to Oxford University but failed to acquire the required grades. She would then take a few years off to travel with her father and work with a casting director. She eventually trained with the Guildhall School of Music and Drama for three years, and graduated in 2005.

Atwell’s first role was in a commercial for Pringles potato crisps, her salary from which she used to pay her first year tuition at Guildhall. After she finished her studies, she had her first film role in “Cassandra’s Dream” in which she played Angela Stark. This led to more film opportunities – in 2008, she appeared in the film “The Duchess” as well as the TV series “Brideshead Revisited”, then in 2009, she made her West End stage debut in a revival of “A View from the Bridge”, which would earn her a Laurence Olivier Award, all of which would steadily increase her net worth.

She then appeared in the TV miniseries “The Prisoner”, before starring in the television adaptation of “Any Human Heart”. In 2011, Atwell starred in “Captain America: The First Avenger”, the Marvel superhero film, which would increase her popularity and net worth significantly. She would reprise her role in 2013’s “Agent Carter”, and in “Captain America: The Winter Soldier”. She would continue appearing as a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, having roles in “Avengers: Age of Ultron”, “Ant-Man”, and “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D”, and would also have a lead role in the series “Marvel’s Agent Carter”, although the show was cancelled after a year.

In 2016, Hayley was cast in the pilot for the series “Conviction”, but it was later cancelled. She is now set to appear in the film “Christopher Robin” alongside Ewan McGregor, scheduled for release in late 2018.

For her personal life, it is known that Hayley had a long term relationship with television writer Gabriel Bisset-Smith after being friends for many years, however, the relationship ended and she expressed regret about being open in interviews about their relationship. She resides in Los Angeles, California, moving there due to the demands of her role as Peggy Carter.

#Quote
1[on Alexi Kaye Campbell's play "The Pride"] They are two scenes that are either side of the sexual revolution, and two very different ways that society deals with homosexuality. In 1958, it was still illegal and then in 2013, we've just had this wonderful milestone of legalising gay marriage. So it's about how society shapes gay identity and it explores the idea of a subculture which society has imposed upon the gay community, one of promiscuity, and it says there is another side which is about intimacy and love between two people.
2The scary thing is what that will do to a generation of young people [in Russia] who are having these thoughts and feelings towards members of their own sex but they're given no reference point that this is OK. This is just part of who they are and I think you'll get a lost generation of children growing up feeling that their country is telling them that this fundamental aspect of who they are is wrong. It's incredibly troubling because it's happening, not just in Russia, but in countries like Georgia and Cameroon and the statistics in this country of homophobic attacks is frightening.
3We heard about the protest in Whitehall in support of Russian gay rights and we went along and it was very moving and we felt it was very positive.
4I think it will be a balance of creative and commercial choices, going forward. People say critical acclaim and box office success don't go hand in hand and that may be true but I don't really think I'd live much on the salary of a full-time theatre actor. I mean, I could, but I really like going out to dinner...
5[on her character in Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)] Peggy was in a position where if she was a damsel in distress, she wouldn't be of that position. And when she says, "I know what it's like to have a few doors slammed in my face," I think because she's this attractive woman who's beautifully made up, she had to fight a little bit harder to get where she is to prove that she's capable. And I think that's great because there's a kindred spirit between her and Steve, there's an equality about them and I love that.
6[on Brideshead Revisited (2008)] What attracted me was I loved the vivid characters that had obviously come from a very rich novel and Jeremy Brock and Andrew Davies had put that into the script. The character definitions and the stage directions were very rich and as rich as the dialogue so I felt that there was a hell of a lot of passion behind it. I'm attracted to flawed characters. I think they're really interesting to play. I was really intrigued who this enigmatic Julia was and what was bubbling and going on beneath the surface. So it was probably that.
7My first job was a Greek tragedy, and ever since, one job just seemed to roll onto the next. I've been terribly lucky.
8Nude scenes can be very liberating. I feel very human. This is me, with all my little imperfections.
