In October 2011, it was announced that she would be starring in the feature film Everyone's Going To Die.[4][5] In 2016, Duggan had a minor role in The Tunnel.

In April 2020 she revealed that she was now working part-time in a doctor's surgery because "being an out of work actress doesn't pay".[6]
