Killing Eve star Sandra Oh wants cameo from Fleabag star Phoebe Waller-Bridge

Killing Eve creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge could be making a cameo ­in the hit show.

Fleabag star Phoebe, 34, has previously said she’d love to be a victim of assassin Villanelle, played by Jodie Comer.

And now Sandra Oh – who stars as MI6 agent Eve – has said Phoebe should appear in series four.

When asked who she’d like to see in her dream cast, Sandra, 48, who is also a show executive, said: “Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

"Absolutely, absolutely. It would be amazing if she came on as some character.”

Sandra teased the idea earlier this week – and it’s certainly ­possible Golden Globe winner Phoebe could appear as she is friends with Laura Neal, who is writing series four, due out next year.

Phoebe has previously said she’d like to meet a sticky end on the show after failing to find a role for herself in the first series.

She was ­originally due to play Villanelle, but gave the role to Jodie.

“I just felt like it was something I hadn’t seen and I’m not a 25-year-old Jodie,” she said.

“I don’t know if I could have scaled a wall like she could have done, and I’m not in my 40s, so I wrote myself out of it.

“Then I was like, ‘I am going to write myself a part, so I can be murdered by Jodie’. We just never got around to it.”
