Sophia Alison M. "Phia" Boreham Saban (born 19 September 1998) is an English actress. She is known for her roles in the fifth series of the Netflix medieval drama The Last Kingdom (2022) and the HBO fantasy series House of the Dragon (2022–present).[1][2]
Saban made her television début when she joined the main cast of the Netflix medieval drama series The Last Kingdom (based on the novel of the same name) as Aelfwynn for its fifth and final series, which premiered in 2022.[7] Saban's character was not included in the 2023 film The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die, which finalised the Netflix programme, due to the condensed running time from the change in format. Screenwriter Martha Hillier stated that "It was heartbreaking... But we only really had a certain amount of real estate and we couldn't service all the characters. It's a much more single protagonist story".[8]
