    'Mary Poppins' was Julie Andrews first major film role, after enormous success on Broadway. After winning the Oscar for Best Actress for her role as the magical nanny, she went on to star in 'The Sound of Music' and 'Victor Victoria'.

In 2017, Andrews launched the Netflix children’s program 'Julie’s Room' and more recently has lent her voiceover talents to 2018’s 'Aquaman' and 'Bridgerton'.
