She is also known for her work in other Netflix productions, including guest starring in the series Black Mirror, starring as Kate Ashby in the series Black Earth Rising and starring as Simone in the film Been So Long.

Michaela was born and raised in London to Ghanaian parents. She took an interest to theatre at a young age and went on to attend the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where she was the first black woman enrolled in five years.

Coel created, wrote, produced, co-directed and starred in the comedy-drama series "I May Destroy You", inspired by her own experience of sexual assault, for which she won the British Academy Television Award for Best Actress in 2021 and is nominated for four Primetime Emmy Awards including Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie. The show launched on BBC One in the UK and HBO in the US in June 2020 to widespread acclaim.
